Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello, I understand your concern. I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query.
In my opinion you have allergy and superimposed fungal infections.
You can find the allergen responsible for allergy. Stop exposing your self to such a antigen is the permanent solution.
You can take cetrizine for more allergy related problems. If you have much burning and pain you can use local anaesthetic cream which we can apply on mucosa.
Avoid spicy and hot foods. More of the foods like butter cheese helps you prevent from burning.
I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/DrArun. Thank you. Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist.
