Chlorhexidine gluconate. Should i do?

Mouthwash sometimes gives irritation to the gums and throat if the alcohol content in it is too high or if your gums are too sensitive. You can change to a more natural mouth wash. Always use your mouth in 1:1 ratio. Dilute it in water before using.

consult your dentist about it to change your mouth wash.

Do not eat anything spicy or too hot. you can avoid using mouthwash for sometime till your condition heals  and try using warm water and salt. Then you can change to a natural mouthwash.

Nothing to worry about it was because you didn't diluted it and may be swallowed, your problem will subside on it's own Just don't use it for couple of days Later u use it in 1:1 ratio(normal water:mouthwash) Keep in the mouth for 5mins if u can hold other wise u can dilute it more and spit it out , after that don't drink water or eat anything for 15-30 mins Moreover if u feel its gingivitis then kindly visit your dentist for proper clinical and radio graphical examination if required and get the planned treatment done Treatment options vary depending on the condition of your teeth and gums 1 Scaling and polishing (normal cleaning ) 2 Curettage and root planning (for more severe cases) Followed by maintenance therapy till your problem subside

Maintain oral hygiene (brush twice ) Rinse your mouth everytime you eat something

Chlorhexidine should be used in dilution with water in 1:1ratio 50 %water and 50 %chlorhexidine otherwise it can harm the oral tissues and it also causes loss of taste sensation

just wait and use warm water rinses from the next days/throat will heal with time
