I've been dealing with these mouth ulcers on my tongue for a while now. I've tried using Clogen lozenges and some weekly antifungal meds for the past three months, but they're just not going away. I've even seen a dentist, and they couldn't find anything wrong. They clear up, but then they're back after a few days. I've also been taking Vitamin B supplements. Plus, Ive been having some digestion issueslike I constantly need to go to the bathroom to clear my bowels. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or any suggestions on what I could try next?

I recommend trying a combination of medications to address the possible underlying causes. You can try using a mouthwash containing Chlorhexidine to reduce oral bacteria and promote healing. Additionally, taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole can help with your digestion issues and reduce stomach acid, which may be contributing to the mouth ulcers. For the mouth ulcers specifically, you can also use a topical corticosteroid like Triamcinolone acetonide dental paste to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage for each medication.

My friend has been taking Colimex tablets for about seven months now, kind of using them like a drug. We're a bit worried because his SGPT level is 45. Could this be related to the Colimex, and what should he do about it?

I'm experiencing some belly button pain that started about three days ago, and today I noticed some blood coming from my belly button. Should I be concerned about this? Could it be something serious?

Since you are experiencing pain and noticing blood coming from your belly button, it could indicate an umbilical infection. You may consider using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Additionally, you should keep the area clean and dry.

I'm really worried about my dad's condition. The doctor mentioned he has to take this Pantocid HP kit, but I'm not sure how we're supposed to use it. Also, are there any side effects we should be aware of? Since he's diabetic too, does that pose any additional risks with these meds? Could really use some guidance here.

The Pantocid HP kit is commonly used to treat Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacterial infection in the stomach, which can cause ulcers. The kit usually contains a combination of three medications: Pantoprazole (40mg), Clarithromycin (500mg), and Amoxicillin (1000mg). It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of the treatment to ensure effectiveness and minimize the risk of side effects. Since your father is a diabetic patient, it is important to monitor his blood sugar levels regularly while taking this medication, as it may interact with his diabetes medication. It is advisable to inform the doctor about his diabetes and any other medications he is taking to avoid any potential drug interactions.
