Bitter Taste in mouth and fingers..?
I AM A VERY CLEAN PERSON, AND TONIGHT I WAS EATING SUNFLOWER SEENDS AND MY HANDS TASTE HECKA BITTER. I WASHED THEM THINKING IT WAS PROBABLY THE LOTION AND PUT MY FINGER BACK IN MY MOUTH WITHOUT THE SEED AND I STILL HAVE THAT SAME TASTE. WHAT IS THAT AND WHY. I HAVE A BAD TOOTH I KNOW OF ..I JUST GOT RID OF ONE TOOTH THE OTHER DAY THAT WAY REALLY REALLY MESSED UP AND NOW THE MOLAR ON THE OTHER SIDE IS CHIPPED BUT NOT YET SHOWING SIGNS OF INFECTION. I DONT KNOW. AND ALSO TOWARDS THE END OF MY TONUE ON THE SIDE I GOT THE SAME BITTER TASTE OR MAYBE AGAIN ITS MY HANDS. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY MY HANDS ARE LIKE THIS. I WASHED THEM! ITS NOT THE SOAP..
Answers:
Maybe you have an abscess and don't know it? I had this happen to me before. I had no swelling, no pain but one day I got this foul bitter taste in my mouth so I put my finger in there and rubbed all over my gums and my finger smelled! So then I washed my hands and had to go tooth by tooth to find the culprit! Also, you could have old food stuck between your teeth that is causing the bad taste? You say you gotten rid of a tooth the other day, is it possible it was infected & still is, infection in your gums that is. If the tooth is chipped, the tooth could already be bad and you just may not have any pain yet. One of mine was like that! I have 2 bad teeth as we speak that are scheduled to be pulled the 9th, but they don't smell or taste bad like my other one did? So do the finger check, floss and them see if you still get that bitter taste, if not, it could have been something you touched.
