What Causes Redness On Soft Palate And White Coating On Tongue?
I have SLE Lupus and I m starting to see things that I have never seen before. two of my finger nails have become detached and looks like they are ready to fall off. Also, I was on antibiotics a couple of weeks ago for a UTI which seems to keep coming back every month. I noticed that I am in pain when eating due to the whiteness on my tougue and the redness on the roof of my mouth and on both sides of my upper gums by my teeth. I thought I burnt my mouth but it has been like this for over 2 weeks. What is going on? I don t have the money to go to the doctor right now or else I would have made an appointment. I was reading about tyroids disease. I do have depression but i figured it was because I am struggling and not making alot of money. However, when I m down I m down.

thanq for your query
since you have SLE, try using topical steroids such as lidex or temovate. you can use them even on your skin if you have any rashes.
if they dont reduce then i suggest you visit a dentist/dermatologist immediately
