Rotten And Foul Taste In Mouth Causing Nausea And Throat Pain. No Improvement With Nasal Spray, Antibiotics. Cause?
I have the salty taste in my mouth for over 1.5 years now and it now tastes like rotten foul taste. I ve tried nasal spray prescribed by my doctor, taken antibiotic ( amoxicillin + potassium calvulanate), tried rinsing sinus with over the counter saline rinse, but nothing works. it got to the point i feel nauseated and my throat hurts. What could be the reason?

hello. there are a lot of reasons for the rotten taste and smell , please consult your dentist to rule out any caries or gum infections and if that is normal , please meet a gastro-entrologist to rule out any problem in your food pipe. thanks
