Why Do I Have Reoccurring Canker Sores?

I have recurrent canker sores for the past 6 months, taken antibiotics and oral care but it keep coming. Please what could be the cause

1 Answer

Answered on 18th Oct '24

The pesky thing is recurrent canker sores. They are small, shallow sores in your mouth. A stressor, weakness of the immune system, and certain foods can provoke them. Genetic predisposition may also be a reason why some folks are more prone to having them. To reduce pain, use over-the-counter ointments or gels that are intended for canker sores. Also, try to sail through stress and eat a healthy diet.

Can we take candiforce 200 and hicope 10 tablet together at a time

Male | 24

It is not advised to use Candiforce 200 and Hicope 10 tablets simultaneously. The use of Candiforce in the treatment of fungal infections like thrush is one of the products while Hicope is useful in handling allergy symptoms. The interaction of the two could cause side effects such as dizziness, stupor, or stomach problems. It's always safe to go according to your doctor's instructions. If you have trouble, communicate with your doctor.

I am a 28 year female, with oily skin, having complaints regarding acne, acne scars, tanning, uneven skin tone and dullness. Can I get treatment options for my concerns as well as the cost so as to proceed further. Thank you!

Female | 28

There are many treatment options available to help address your concerns. You can choose from a basic skincare routine to more involved treatments such as laser treatments, chemical peels, light therapy, micro-needling, and laser treatments for acne scarring. These will work by stimulating new collagen in your skin, which can help reduce the appearance of scars. You can look into chemical peels, laser treatments, and light therapies for hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. These treatments can help to break down pigmented cells and stimulate new cell growth, which in turn can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. For dullness, you can look into facial treatments such as microdermabrasion, which can help to exfoliate your skin and reduce dullness. Cost of these treatments can vary widely, depending on the type of treatment you choose. It is best to consult with a dermatologist to get better treatment options.

Having pimple and painful bumps need a cream or gel.

Male | 22

Your skin issues se­em to indicate pimples and sore­ bumps. These happen whe­n pores get blocked, trapping bacte­ria inside. An over-the-counte­r cream or gel with benzoyl pe­roxide or salicylic acid may help. These­ ingredients reduce­ inflammation by killing bacteria on your skin's surface. Wash your face re­gularly to prevent clogging. Don't squee­ze pimples, though - that can cause scarring. With some­ care, those bumps will clear up.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.

Male | 25

You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.
