Is It Normal To Have Sore Mouth Roof At The Same Side Of The Sinus Infection?

I have a sinus infection and have been on antibiotics, I've noticed that I now have sore on the roof of my mouth on the right side top, same side of the sinus infection, is this normal. I've had sinus infections before but haven't had the sore in the mouth. Thankyou

Hi there,

Thanks for your query.

Appearance of oral sores is a common complication of antibiotics, which alter the gut bacteria by killing 'good bacteria'. The oral cavity is the first part of the gut.

A 2-3 weeks' course of Lactobacilli and multi-vitamin supplements will cure the sores.

Consult your doctor and apprise him of my opinion. I am certain that he will agree with me and prescribe the advised supplements in appropriate doses.

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE ALL doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Take care
