Hello doctor,
My tongue is often white (not like it's greasy because I brush my teeth with a toothbrush, it's still the same), deep inside, there is also dirt, this part I rub it out but it often comes out. eh. Every time I finish eating, I still rinse my mouth fully but it still doesn't go away, and every time I lie down to sleep, it doesn't matter how long, when I wake up, my mouth has a bad smell, I have to rinse it right away even though I rinse my mouth every day for 2 days. - 3 times/day. My neck often has phlegm. I did some research on the internet, and I found that it was similar to a case of stomach ulcers. So the doctor asked me what disease is white tongue with bad breath? Thank you doctor.
