See your physician: Antibiotics are very effective but can also change the normal flora.

Oral Candidiasis: also called "oral thrush". Oral thrush can sometimes spread to the roof of the mouth and the back of the throat. In many cases oral thrush does not cause any serious problem. The physician can diagnose oral thrush by looking into your mouth and taking history of present illness. Prescription of the anti-thrush drugs will solve the problem. Take care.
