Brief Answer:
Possibility due to foracort
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having blood clot bubbles on soft palate. I would like to ask you few more details.
Is there any white patch over palate or tongue ?
Are you on any medications (ecosprin/Itraconazole/Clarithromycin) ?
Kindly get back to me with the details.
Yes. It is (Bleeding) possible. Prolonged usage of inhalers (Foracort Inhaler- Budesonide + Formoterol) can lead to fungal infection (candidiasis) which can cause bleeding in untreated cases. Second possibility is elevated blood pressure (prolonged usage of inhaler) can cause bleeding. Last possibility is drug interactions (drug interactions can cause bleeding tendencies).
Hope this answers your question, if you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Waiting for a clearer photo for further advice.
Wishing you good health.
