Hi.. yes you have to continue the tablets as well as injections biweekly for atleast 6 weeks. If there is no improvement then surgery is advised. Before any treatment you should stop any associated habits. Injections can be taken care off by oral medicine specialist.

If it's not infection. It is a condition due to hardening of oral mucosa and loss of its elasticity. It is also precancerous condition. Stop, if any pan Masaaki, or tobacco habit. Seek an oral surgeon opinion
