Suggest treatment for red blotches on roof of mouth
Patient: I originally had strep A and was put on an antibiotic (amoxicillin). I started taking the antibiotic on friday and it is now thursday and i have gotten sick again and have a temperature of almost 100 degrees and I have red blotches on the roof of my mouth. what does this mean? Doctor: Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.It can be possible that you might be having a viral infection that is why you are having fever also and ulcers on the roof of the mouth.If it is a viral infection it will heal on its own as it is a self limiting disease, you just have to apply a topical anesthetic ointment on the ulcer for relief.Hope it will help you.
