Uneasy taste: Doctor warns about the dangers of bitterness in the mouth
The doctor warned about the dangers of frequently experiencing a bitter taste in the mouth.
This symptom may indicate various causes, including a serious illness.
Gazeta.Ru learned about this from diagnostician Olga Malinovskaya.
According to the specialist, a bitter taste in the mouth can appear for various reasons. For example, it can be caused by specific food or medications taken by a person.
According to the specialist, taking the antibiotic tetracycline has a similar effect.
However, if the bitter taste becomes so strong that it affects the taste of food, then we may be talking about serious chronic diseases.
In most cases, we are talking about pathologies of the digestive system, Malinovskaya emphasized.
Most often, bitterness in the mouth is associated with problems in the functioning of the gallbladder, when bile enters the esophagus or when there are stones in the gallbladder.
Also, bitterness in the mouth can be caused by diseases of the oral cavity, such as stomatitis. It is also accompanied by the appearance of ulcers and pain when eating.
The doctor noted that it is difficult to diagnose the pathology on your own. Therefore, if bitterness accompanies the patient constantly and often, it is better to consult a specialist.
It was previously reported what constant hunger indicates.
