TB and biopsy: It is important to rule out TB and malignancy as one possible cause. An ENT specialist at a major hospital should be consulted.

Needs reevaluation: Your husband has been treated, unsuccessfully, 4 times, for an infection. Perhaps there are other factors involved. Time for a total reevaluation. He should see BOTH an ENT and a a specialist Oral Pathologist for work-ups.He may require more than just pills to resolve his problem.
