Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, On Monday I had my standard 6 month teeth cleaning/checkup at the Dentist. He performed the cancer screening test on me (with the light) and said he was concerned with a red spot on my tongue. I actually just noticed the spot that morning. He wants me to call in 3 weeks if it is still there. I am a nervous mess because I have concluded that it is cancer already. Is there a way I can send you a picture? Can you guide me to next steps? Also, I am currently on Bactrim for a UTI. Can this spot be a side affect?
