Have Yellow Blister On Tongue. Painful. Prescribed Gupisone. Is It Safe?
I have mouth ulcer (yellow blister ) on my tongue and appear since last two months. Usually there appears one blister which stay for 10-12 days and disappears and then after couple of days another bliter appears and so on. But one blister I got on my tongue is very deep rooted and very very painful.....it is still there while two more appears on tongue near the wisdom tooth relatively less painful. I have been to my doc (general physician) who referred me to the internal medicine doctor......some blood test done all r ok and normal including B12. Dr. prescribed me Gupisone 20 (steroids) 30 mg per day for 5 days.... Is it safe? what can be cause if all blood test prescribed by the doc are ok? Please note that I started gupisone 20 yesterday and today since morning i am feeling weaknes. Please advise what to do. Thanks and best regards, Ahmad

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Blisters with pain and recurrent nature suggest Herpes lesion.
You should again consult with your treating physician.
Anti-viral medications are very effective such type of infection and complete cure is possible.
Take care,
