Hi Pozzie.

I have a question. I’m taking ARV’s for 3 weeks. Now, I observe that there is like a cut on the side of my mouth. I think it’s not a mouth sore when it’s dry. Then I fee that the area around my mouth is numbing and when it becomes wet with saliva, it becomes hot. I feel that there is some extra skin around my mouth. Inside the mouth, it is hot and it’s hard for me to ear because I don’t taste the food. Hope you can help me.

POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE

Hi XXX.

Thank you for your email.

I called Dr. Ditangco and she said that you should go to the HIV Hub immediately so your HIV doctor can assess your situation. She said that only your doctor will know once he or she has physically checked your symptoms and checked your medical chart.

I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.


Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
