During the second wave in the months of April and May 2021, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a wrecking effect in India. The daily infection rates were increasing drastically. As the pandemic progressed, there was evidence of the potential role of the use of corticosteroids in the management of COVID-19. The principle of this study is to highlight the association of oral manifestations in mild to moderate cases of COVID-19 with the use of corticosteroids during COVID-19 infection. There was a statistically highly significant difference seen for the higher frequency of draining sinuses with the use of steroids.
