Why does stress make it worse?
Posted: Thu Nov 03, 2022 9:42 pm
I had an stressful exam today. Did my scraping, brushing everything routine and went to college. The exam was 2 hours long, I called an uber afterwards and went home. The uber driver had a really bad reaction when I talked, covered his nose instantly, started coughing and immediately opened the window.
I never get those reactions two hours after my routine. Also, I could feel my tongue was ‘dirty’ I guess- I think you guys know what I’m talking about- I don’t have tongue coating but when I wake up I have some white build-up on my tongue that I can scrape easily.
I remember I had an oral exam last year and I could feel my tongue getting ‘dirty’ , just a weird feeling on my tongue. -stressful exam-
So it is related to stress somehow but why? Is it tmau? I haven’t been tested- the odor isn’t fishy -
Any ideas why stress makes it worse? Could you help me identify the cause of my bad breath?
