Whiteness on tongue
I had visited Pulmonologist for my occasional Shortness of Breath when climbing stairs and during walking. He did PFT and the result was FEV1 67%. However I don't have any breathing issue nor any other problem presently. While examining my mouth he said I have fungal infection on tongue. Before this I had redness of mouth and on tongue for which I took treatment. Now doctor has prescribed medications for my Shortness of breath stating it's bcoz of Mild bronchitis. Rotacap Airtech FB 400 lupihaler and Spiromont B for tat. And he has also given Fluconazole tablet and clotrimazole mouth paint for fungal infection. I am attaching pics for review. My question is this is not the White fungus which is affecting covid patients presently or what exactly I am facing presently pls advise.
I am covid asymptomatic patient recovered in Aug 2020
