I am Vijay age 34
I have black pigmentation on my upper gums and I had covid a month back. No pain, no swelling and just black color. I am not sure if I had this before as noticed while checking my mouth yesterday. Is this related to Black fungus as I don't have any other symptoms except black color on my upper gums.
