A member asked:
What is the yellow bad odor inside my throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad breath: Bad breath could be several things including infection (typically bacterial), tonsil stones or reflux. Bad breath could also result from sinus infection or even allergies. Another cause could be dental caries (cavities) or even dental abscess (infection). Each of these have specific symptoms that should give you some idea of where its coming from. Infections should be treated without delay.
