Why is my mouth peeling and bleeding?

Patient's Query

Hi, I am experiencing an ongoing issue with my mouth. At the beginning of this year, the skin around my mouth started peeling. I also noticed that my gums would bleed when I brushed my teeth, and they appeared to be peeling as well. The same with my hard palate, floor of my mouth and the inside of my cheeks, they all feel rough like sandpaper and no longer feel smooth as they did before. Because the problem persisted, I visited the dentist in May and mentioned my symptoms. He told me that my oral anatomy looked normal and that I only needed a dental cleaning. He said everything would be fine. I had two dental cleanings within two weeks, but the problem did not improve. My mouth still feels rough and uncomfortable and had been worsening since. I am really concerned and need help as soon as possible.

Answered by Dr. Parth Shah

Based on your description, the peeling skin around your mouth and the rough feeling in your gums, hard palate, and cheeks could be signs of oral mucosa inflammation. This inflammation can be caused by various factors like vitamin deficiencies, allergic reactions, or even certain infections. Since the problem has persisted despite dental cleanings, I recommend seeing a dentist for a more in-depth evaluation. In the meantime, continue practicing good oral hygiene and try using a gentle mouthwash to soothe the discomfort.

i am using finasteride 1mg daily for hair loss . i have read that it can cause prostate cancer . is this true or can i take it without any worry

Male | 26

Finasteride is mostly safe to use for most people and it's not a direct cause of prostate cancer. Nevertheless, it can have an impact on the behavior of the prostate which in turn, may result in a PSA test result being altered. If you have concerns, it's always best to talk to your doctor.

I am 20 years old and I am sweating so much around my neck while sleeping from the past 2 months and it happen in 2 to 3 day regularly

Female | 20

You may have a condition called night sweats which might contribute to the effect of various factors, including anxiety, hormonal changes, or infections. Firstly, try to keep the room cool and comfortable at night, wear light pajamas, and don't consume caffeine before sleeping. In the morning, take clear water as much as your body can accommodate; this will keep the hydrated fluid in your body.

I am suffering from ringworm from last 4 months I have used so many creame but not use, can please suggest powerful treatment for ringworm for short duration

Male | 18

Ringworm is persiste­nt and tough to treat. It is a fungal infection causing circular, red, itchy patche­s on the skin. This fungus thrives in warm, damp environme­nts. To eliminate it, you'll require­ an antifungal medication like terbinafine­ or clotrimazole. Keep the­ affected area cle­an and dry. Consistent use of the me­dication for two weeks should help re­solve it.

Hi I am taking esomeprazole, lipitor, lisinopril, citalopram and ropinerole. I want to know if it it safe to take anti sweat tablets. Thank you

Female | 59

Sweating is your body's natural way to cool down. Certain medications can increase sweat production as a side effect or be symptoms of underlying medical conditions. Anti-sweat tablets reduce sweat secretion but may interact with your current medications. It's crucial to consult your doctor for a safe solution. They can adjust your medications or suggest alternative treatments to address the root cause of your sweating. Always communicate openly with your doctor about any concerns or changes in your medication regimen to ensure your health is prioritized.

Pls my daughter has this swell on the thumb with pus in it ,very painful Pls what medication should I get for her ??

Female | 10

It might be a infection that can be sometimes caused by bacterias or other microorganism. In my view, you need to see a dermatologist. They may prescribe antibiotics or tell you to open and wash a puss from the swelling. Next steps include making sure the area is kept clean and covered which can slow down the spread of the infection.

Female | 37

You might have had a cyst on your back. It is a sac filled with fluid or pus formed under the skin. If infected, it can be red, white, or black, and the skin can be painful. By the way, the liquid is freed when pressed and the cyst is emptied. The doctor should examine it to be sure it is cared for and removed.
