About Stomatitis.

Stomatitis refers to generalized inflammation or ulceration affecting the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, including the lips, tongue, gingiva, buccal mucosa, palate, and floor of the mouth.

It arises across pediatric and adult populations from diverse etiologies, encompassing viral or fungal infections, autoimmune disorders, direct mechanical or chemical trauma, nutritional deficiencies, and toxicities associated with chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

Pathophysiologically, disruption of mucosal epithelial barrier integrity and localized inflammatory cytokine release lead to mucosal erythema, edema, and painful erosions or ulcerations.

Clinically, these lesions often compromise mastication, speech, swallowing, and nutritional intake.
