XD Hey, I also thought this problem was isolated to me when I was really young. I remember that my pediatrician in the early 1970's called them - brace yourselves - "Cheesy Deposits" - EWWWW! He said it was normal. As I got into my 30's, I realized that my parents in their 50's also had them by talking to them and having to deal with their fowl breath problem. It is unmistakable when you have personally had them. I never had them again until I was 35 or so. This is very personal but I must share to try to make sense of this to help others who may be keeping secrets. First, I am a smoker. Second, in early 200's I was sexually assaulted leading me to choose hard drugs to snort to "self medicate" my misery. As soon as I started to put foreign substances up my nose = the would appear the next day. If I stopped for a couple of weeks, they were gone again. So besides your diet, it could be what type of things you put in your body that maybe should not be there. Like your body rejecting a foreign substance and pushing the impurities out. Who really knows? Hope this helps explain something...ME :-|
I have a 20 year old son that coughs up white, rubbery chunks every day. He has horrible breath issues and if you walk in his bedroom after he's been in his room for a while, the odor is overbearing. I had a friend whose father had TB. The smell is identical. I don't think he has TB, but I am really worried about his lungs. He doesn't have fevers or chills, no loss of appetite, just a daily battle with the white chunks. They are foul smelling and larger than the size of a pea. Occasionally his breath is so bad I have to leave the room. He keeps good personal hygiene and is otherwise healthy. Do you have any idea what this could be?
he's got tonsil stones. gross but not harmful. i have had them for years but not the bad breath issue really. only if they get smashed do they stink. i have a blackhead remover from Sephora that i just use to scoop out my tonsils everyday. its long & has tiny loops at the ends that fit into the deep crevices of my tonsils perfectly.
