Canker Sores
I have white canker sore on back right-hand side of below lip. What I can do to solve the irritation and pain. I feel like making that area numb until issue resolves. I took Layser D and Amoxicillin-Potassium Calvulanate TAB. It didn't helped me much instead it becomes more active and irritated.
Hi, canker sore is harmless and usually go away within a couple of weeks. Usually occurs due to vitamin deficiency, lip/cheek/tongue biting while eating or due to heat build up in the body.
Next Steps
Take multivitamin tablets for 15 days. Do not eat hot spicy food for a few days. Apply rexidine-M gel 2/3 times a day on the affected area 10 mins before eating to numb the area. Avoid citrus food for a few days. Have coconut water, curd, chia seeds mixed in water.
