Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The red spot inside the jaws and roof of the mouth can be because of the fungal infection particularly candidiasis since you are using inhaler you are more prone to develop candidiasis. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can use topical antifungal agents like clotrimazole. Do saline gargling.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
