3 months ago I was treated for an oral yeast infection after taking antibiotics. I took a pill for 7 days and on the 7th day I finally didn t have any ulcers or pain in my mouth. A few days later it started coming back. I then was put on a liquid medication that didn t do anything. I was very frustrated and different people told me I should take sovereign silver. I sprayed it in my mouth 3 times a day for weeks. I finally got tired of putting up with the symptoms and called my doctor again. He put me on the pill form again for 10 days. It did nothing. I still have a feeling of a film in my mouth, my tongue is numbish, it s whitish with red spots on the back, food doesn t taste right, and when I eat salty foods I get ulcers in my mouth. The ulcers haven t been as bad the last month. I had called my doctor and told him it never went away and he recommended an oral surgeon. Do you have any idea what s wrong?
Hello, Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor Read your query numbness in tongue with feeling of film in mouth and mouth ulcers this can be due to fungal infection, deficiency to vitamin B, decapitation of papilla or due to stress induced. For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for clinical examination of oral cavity and to get proper diagnosis. In meantime maintain proper oral hygiene, and you can apply ointment on ulcer like McCoppin or candid gel by consulting with local doctor. Hope this will help you.
