Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
For C O P D , you took cefuroxime + prednisolone.
For testicle infection again ciprofloxacin + prednisole.
Prednisole is a steroid and it causes immunodepressive effects.
Due to prolong use of prednisolone there develops blisters in the mouth.
Due to blisters there is salivation.
Antibiotics produces hyper acidity hence pain in the stomach.
Consult your treating physician and get in treatment for mouth ulcer and hyper acidity.
Alternatively you can use antacid tablets ( OTC) local gel for mouth ulcer.
An appetizer will increase your appetite.
Hops I have answered your question.
If , further any question I will gladly help.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
