A MyCOPDT...

Try taking a low dose of zinc, it should help your mouth. I have a dry mouth from meds and nothing helps that but then zinc kept the inside from being sore.

Yes definitely get ahold of your dr he can give you oral medicine you swish to clear it up . Get rid of your tooth brush as it is infected also. Now if your bold like me I rinsed with apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to 1/4 cup water, at least twice a day. That is the old fashioned remedy.

It's very important to rinse your mouth with a mouthwash I found . That is also recommended to avoid thrush and dry mouth

many of the steroid type aerosols can leave you with Thrush.....that's one reason you're suppose to rinse your mouth out with water after using them....advair, etc. Nystatin swish and swallow should do the trick...ask your Pulm Doc for RX for it. good Luck
