Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Can you look at the picture and tell me if I have an oral thrush?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have seen the picture (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). There is a depapillation of the tongue. As it is reddish, it seems to be a vitamin B complex deficiency. But, as the pictures are not in natural light, I cannot comment for sure. It can be an oral thrush (acute candidiasis) as well. There is no need to worry. Please take the following medications for five days, and you will be fine. Take tablet Ketoconazole 100 mg once a day for five days. Take tablet vitamin B complex once a day for a month.
I hope this helps.
