I'm dealing with these mouth ulcers every two weeks and it's pretty painful, especially when I'm eating or talking. I'm really curious about what could help with the pain and maybe even prevent them from coming back. What should I do?

Mouth ulcers can be quite uncomfortable. To help relieve the pain and promote healing, you can use a topical oral gel containing Choline Salicylate and Cetalkonium Chloride. Apply the gel directly on the ulcer 3-4 times a day after meals and at bedtime. Additionally, you can take a Vitamin B complex supplement to aid in the healing process. Make sure to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the ulcers.

I'm dealing with really dry skin on my face, but it's weird because it's only in certain areas and it's turning whitish. I already have a gel called Clinmiskin that I used for my pimples before, and it worked great. But now that the pimples are gone, can I use the same gel for the dry and whitish skin on my face?

I'm using Erytop lotion twice a day, once in the morning and then again before I go to bed. Is it okay to apply sunscreen over Erytop in the morning? And at night, can I put on a moisturizer after using the Erytop lotion? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

I've been dealing with this fungal infection for over a year now, and I regularly use CIPLA FOREDERM CREAM which makes it feel normal. But if I stop using the cream for just 2-3 days, the itching becomes so intense that I can't walk or wear pants comfortably. Can you advise me on how to cure this, and if there's a permanent treatment available? I'm really struggling with this and would appreciate some guidance.

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
