Have Red Color In Mouth. Used Breva. How To Overcome This Problem?
I just started three days ago a once a day use of breva, an inhaler with steroids. The dr. told me to rinse my mouth out with water right after my using the inhaler. I have done so. My mouth as of this morning is red from tip to about and inch and half back. I called the dr. early today and they said that it should not be caused by this use but I am skeptical a bit. what should I do? My name is Michael.

Hello,
I would advice you to discontinue the use of inhalor and get it replaced.
If symptoms persists even after replacing drug,please do get a thorough clinical evaluation as well as biopsy investigation done.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Avoid spicy foods,tobacco or pan chewing.
Use chlorhexidine mouthrinses to gargle.
Vitamin b complex as well as iron supplements has to be administered.
Take care.
