Mucosal lesions

Mucosal lesions are sores, ulcers, or abnormal areas that develop on the mucous membranes lining parts of the body such as the mouth, nose, throat, or genital regions. These lesions can result from infections, injuries, allergies, or underlying health conditions. They may cause discomfort, pain, or sensitivity, and sometimes appear as white patches, redness, or open wounds. The severity and appearance vary depending on the cause. Proper diagnosis is important to determine treatment, which may involve medication, improved hygiene, or addressing the underlying issue to promote healing and prevent complications.
