Treated For TB. Spitting Out Greyish Color, Tongue Became White, Bad Breath. What Is It? Medication?
Hi good day, I m pearl 24y/o.. I ve had a tb last 2003 and completed the 6months medication.. But now Everytime I spit there s a grayish or sometimes close to black color on it.. And also there s no night that I will be awake because I need to spit out.. I think this also causes my tongue to be white in color instead of red.. And I feel that it also causes me to have a bad breath easily.. Would like to know what illness is this and what medications should I take.. Thank you so much...

Hello,
Bad breath is usually caused due to poor oral hygiene maintenance.
Please get your teeth cleaned by a dentist.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Take anti-oxidants and vitamin becosules .
If symptoms persists,please do visit a physician.
Take care.
