I would like to know more about what is going on with Ulcer and Scar Band.

How to treat ulcer and scar band?

Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any suggestions (^v^)

Peptic ulcers are treated with antibacterial medication.

I'm not sure what you mean by "scar band", do you mind elaborating?

Please see your given image as shown below

An ulcer is an open sore, but I can't say with confidence why the scar bands are white.

If the red area of throat is ulcer, which can be treat with antibacterial medication.
Today, doctor assigns "Augmentin :  amoxycillin + clavulanate potassium 1g" for 7 days, he mentions to take tablets during the meal (2 times per day).  Could this antibacterial medication treat any bacteria in throat and Helicobacter pylori (if possible) on stomach as well?

Furthermore, since antibacterial medication can only treat bacteria, but not virus, in case I get covid-19 virus, would antibacterial medication making virus stronger as well? That is risk

Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any suggestions (^v^)

Yes, it's known to be prescribed for ulcers as well.


Not much of a risk because the drug doesn't target bacteria along your respiratory tract.

I am going to monitor on whether ulcer would disappear or not.

Thank you very much for suggestions (^v^)

I would like to confirm on following concepts

1)  Taking antibacterial medication, which REDUCE bacteria and prevent further inflammation
2)  Taking Lysozyme chloride, which ONLY reduce inflammation temporary
3)  For long period inflammation, it would become scar, would it finally become cancer?

1. Correct
2. It assists in infection and inflammation. Why are you using this?
3. Over time, chronic inflammation can cause DNA damage and lead to cancer.

Some area of throat shows red (ulcer) but not painful, I would like to know on how long antibacterial medication takes to heal ulcer.  Furthermore, what activity is doing within ulcer area?

Doctor mentions that Lysozyme chloride is just enzyme to reduce inflammation.

Do you have any suggestions on what Lysozyme chloride actually do?
Thank you very much for any suggestions (^v^)

It's killing the bacteria, which is the root cause of the ulcer.


Lysozyme is an enzyme that breaks down the bonds that make up peptidoglycan, which is the major component of gram-positive bacterial cell wall. So if the ulcer is caused by gram-positive bacteria, it will help to eliminate the bacteria. It's really up to you whether or not you want to take it along with Augmentin. Did you doctor prescribe both of these?

Yes, would it be better not to take Lysozyme along with Augmentin?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any suggestions (^v^)

I couldn't say, because in my opinion, both drugs have a similar end goal, so I don't know if taking them together will help to achieve that goal faster.

If there is no bad side on taking both together, then I keep taking both.
I would monitor the status, and want to solve this throat issue over a long period of time.

I am very appreciated for all your help
