Using steroid inhaler for 3 months and have really sore mouth,started as white marks at corners of my lips and tongue but its now red spot like patchs?

Maybe Thrush?: Using a steriod inhaler can cause the problems that you describe. It is important to rinse your mouth well after you use the inhaler so any residue doesn't stay there. An examination by a doctor can help to confirm the diagnosis.
