Yellow tongue, bad breath and unformed stools may be caused by Helicobacter pylori infection and gastrointestinal dysfunction, which can be alleviated through dietary modification and medication.
1. Helicobacter pylori infection: When the stomach is infected by Helicobacter pylori, it will cause inflammation and stimulation of the mucous membrane of the stomach wall, and at the same time, affect the digestion of food in the stomach, resulting in bad taste in the mouth and irregular bowel movements. At this time, try to eat some easy-to-digest, light food, and quit smoking and drinking.
It can be eradicated with a four-combination therapy of one proton pump inhibitor + one bismuth agent + two antibiotics. Commonly used proton pump inhibitors are omeprazole, pantoprazole, etc., bismuth agent has bismuth potassium citrate, etc., antibiotics have amoxicillin, metronidazole, clarithromycin, etc..
2. Gastrointestinal dysfunction: Gastrointestinal dysfunction can lead to irregular stools, constipation and diarrhea alternately, affecting normal digestion leading to yellow tongue and bad breath and other manifestations. It is often accompanied by a decrease in beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract, and intestinal flora disorders. Oral probiotics such as Bifidobacterium triphylium can be taken to regulate the intestinal flora and improve the character and shape of the stool.
In addition to diet and medication, it is also important to adopt a good lifestyle. Probiotics are recommended to be taken with water not exceeding 40°C. Try not to use them at the same time as antibiotics, at least 2 hours apart. The above should be used under medical supervision.
