General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and welcome.

I would recommend a check on your vitamin C, serum iron and vitamin B12 levels. This is most probably a deficiency of either one. Please go about the same and report to a doctor with the reports for appropriate correction.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
