Problems in my mouth
About 3 weeks ago I suddenly lost taste of whatever I ate for 2 days. After that when I checked my mouth I noticed there were white lines along the walls of my cheeks. Also I felt a slight swelling on the inside of the cheeks. Doctors gave me antibiotics, mouthwash and tablets. I changed 2 doctors one a general physician and another an ENT doctor in an attempt to cure my problem. The white lines along my cheeks are still there. When I run my tongue on the inside of my mouth it feels as if the inside is oily. I got fed up with the medicines the doctors gave me although I had taken the full prescribed dosage. I found I was still having this problem so I started applying dabur red toothpaste to the inside walls of my mouth and rinsed my mouth after keeping the toothpaste in it for about 10 minutes. I am still doing this but there doesn't seem to be any improvement.

It seems to me lichen planus It is an autoimmune condition which is not going in days.  It takes months to years to disappear. To rule out the condition. Take ketokenezole 100mg OD for 15days. Candid gel apply 3-4 times daily. Mostly of the white lesions of mouth associated with the taste lass are fungal infections
Next Steps
Evaluate for leukoplakia and oral submucus fibrosis and if you can upload some image to be checked properly. Regards Dr Muzaffer
