2020-05-21 14:38:56
My mother has been suffering with mouth ulcer since a year. Tried lot of medicines and gels but all in vain. Those white patches heals at once only to re-appear at other places.It's giving burning sensation inside the mouth while eating. Have consulated several doctors but they says it never going to cure. Is there any permanent solution for this?
