Question

A client with epilepsy reports diffused redness and large blisters on the buccal mucosa. what could be the possible reason for the client's condition?

Answer 1

The most possible explanation to the client's condition is a reaction to the anti-epileptic medications that he/she is taking.

Diffused redness and large blisters on the buccal mucosa could be symptoms of stomatitis, an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the mouth and lips. Stomatitis could be an indication of mouth irritation caused by a reaction to certain drugs, such as antibiotics and epilepsy medications.
