Bad breath (halitosis) can be caused by a variety of things, including diet, medication, poor oral hygiene, and diseases or conditions such as diabetes, GERD, lactose intolerance, gum disease, and more.
Many sufferers complain of a continuous metallic taste in their mouth. This is from the iron in the blood which produces the metallic taste. With the blood loss, the breath can become worse. First it'll have an iron or metallic smell and then change into a more foul scent as the blood decomposes. While checking for bad breath, check to see if there's inflammation of the gums and blood. This will be a good indicator that the bad breath is due to gum disease. Reference: Mouth Health: Bad Breath.
