Has he gotten a throat culture just to make sure it is not strep? That can have an AWFuL smell.

Yes, he is on a daily regimen. I don't think it's working.

Has he tried an antihistamine to help stop the post nasal drip?

No treatment whatsoever. And the older you get the worse a tonsilectomy is. Apparently bleeding to death is a concern.

I'm sure doctors can take the tonsil stones out, but they come back constantly and you couldn't go to the doctor that often.

It's gotten so bad that I really would love to have my tonsils taken out. I was told you'd be out of work for roughly two weeks though and I'm saving for maternity leave....


So you just take care of them yourself? There is no treatment?

You should google the youtube videos of tonsil stone removal. They are truly horrific.

Nasal spray will help. Not breathing through his mouth (which can happen when you're stuffy) and brushing his tongue.

The allergist or an ENT can help.

I think my husband has a bad case of post nasal drip that is causing very bad breath. It recently started and is getting progressively worse. It's really affecting our relationship b/c it's so bad and I'm so turned off.
He has bad allergies and its not a bad breath smell - it's worse do this is why I think it is post nasal drip. And yes, I have told him, yes he was embarrassed and it was awful and yes he has a dental appt and an appt with his allergist but I am looking for insight!!

What can he do for this?? I need your help!
