I'm dealing with a really stubborn mouth ulcer that hasn't healed in three days. I've been taking B complex tablets twice a day and using zytee gel on it, but there's no improvement. Can you help me figure out what's going on or what else I can do?

Given your symptoms, here's a suggested order of specialists to consult:
Initial Consultation
- General Physician: Start with a general physician to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing the pain.
Specialized Consultation 2. Orthopedist: If the general physician suspects a musculoskeletal issue, consult an orthopedist. They can assess and address potential issues with your bones, joints, or muscles.
Alternative or Additional Therapy 3. Physiotherapist: A physiotherapist can help with pain management, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles. They can be consulted in conjunction with an orthopedist or as a follow-up appointment.
Pain Specialist (Optional) 4. Pain Specialist: If your pain persists and is severe, you may want to consult a pain specialist. They can help manage chronic pain and develop a customized treatment plan.

I've been noticing these small lumps on my body for about 10 years now. Is there a specific type of doctor I should consult for this? I'm really curious about what kind of treatment options might be available. Any advice would be really appreciated.
The small lumps on your body could be lipomas, which are usually harmless fatty tumors under the skin. You can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment. In some cases, if the lipomas are causing symptoms or cosmetic concerns, they can be removed surgically. However, if the lumps are due to other causes, the treatment may vary. It is best to consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

My dentist prescribed me Ofloxacin and Ornidazole for a dental issue, and it got me wondering, isn't this combination usually more for stomach infections? I didn't know it was used for dental problems too. Could it have any effects on my heart because I'm seeing a cardiologist as well? I just want to make sure everything's safe. What's the usual reason dentists would prescribe this?
Dentists and cardiologists may prescribe the Ofloxacin + Ornidazole combination to prevent or treat bacterial infections that can occur during dental procedures or in patients with certain heart conditions, such as endocarditis, as Ofloxacin is an antibiotic that targets a wide range of bacteria, while Ornidazole is an antiprotozoal agent that also has antibacterial properties, making this combination effective against various types of infections.
