Hello, I am recently getting over a severe case of strep throat. I wa treated by my MD for this. Now I am having an unusual oily taste in my mouth and I have developed a dark, purplish ring around the lip line. I also have hypthyroidism. I have never had these symptoms before and was wondering if you had any idea's on what could be going on.
You may be suffering from acute pharyngitis with chapped lips. Avoid cool drinks and freeze water avoid smoking. Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling. Use a tablet augmentin twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
