[|AI|]  Hi, I understand your concerns. You are reporting to have asthma and skin asthma. I believe you are also taking oral medications like albuterol or steroid oral spray. The long term use of such medications would make your oral mucosa turn white. Another cause might be oral thrush or even anemia. I advise to:- run a complete blood count to rule out anemia in order to treat it accordingly- culture oral swab to rule out candida overgrowth and if you need further treatment-keep a good oral hygiene Discuss it further with your doctor!
