Mucous membrane with adhesive white spots

Adhesive leukoplakia is a clinical manifestation of chronic cutaneous mucosal candidiasis. Chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis is a bacterial immunodeficiency disease that causes persistent Candida infections of the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nails. This disease is different from other cellular immunodeficiency diseases. It only lacks response to Candida albicans and a few antigen-associated fungi, while its immunity to viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms is normal. This disease is a syndrome of some diseases, which can be combined with various endocrine organ dysfunction, tumors and other chronic failure diseases, and can also occur during the application of immunosuppressive agents.
