Since you've already consulted a dentist and are using the prescribed treatments, here are some suggestions:
1. Continue using Rexidin M Forte Gel as directed, but monitor your symptoms closely.
2. Ensure proper oral hygiene and maintain the warm saltwater rinses.
3. Take Zincovit and Vitamin A supplements as prescribed.
However, considering the increased redness, you might want to:
1. Revisit the dentist for a reassessment.
2. Discuss potential allergic reactions or interactions with the medications.
If symptoms worsen or you experience severe pain, difficulty swallowing, or breathing, seek immediate medical attention.
