Yellowish discoloration of the face may result from elevated bilirubin levels in the body, possibly due to liver disease. Halitosis (bad breath) may stem from oral or gastrointestinal disorders; common causes include pulpitis, dental caries, periodontitis, gastritis, and gastric ulcers. It is recommended that you visit a reputable hospital for comprehensive evaluations of both the digestive system and oral cavity to identify the underlying cause.
