Hello, well yes it is curable though if it has spread to your mucous membrane orally there are chances of its revival. But there is nothing to worry about as there is treatment for everything and cure. So yes for your medciations you apply at night before sleep. And since these medications will be absorbed you can rinse but try to minimise the rinse. Thank you.
