Hello Dear,
Oral ulceration is a common disease, it often happens with sharp tooth, gastric problems and stress. you must visit to your dentist or physician for examination. Try to find out the cause of it. If it a sharp causing ulcer, get it removed or grinned. If it is because of stress, do exercise, yoga and meditation. If any medical problem, visit you doctor.

Oral ulcers could be due to stress ,gastric problems etc. First thing is to find the cause of problem,that can only be done through clinical examination. As far as symptomatic relief is concerned ,you can apply mucopain ointment 15 minutes before meals.

Ulcers generally take 1-2weeks to heal completely. recurrent ulcers can be due to local mouth conditions such as rough teeth surface or rough mouth appliances or dentures n cheek bites. It can also b due to General nutrtional deficiency, digestion prob, work pressure n stressful lifestyle etc. Certain bacterial n viral infections also cause ulcers. Treatment: start on multivitamin tabs which includes vit c n iron supplements if ur hb% levels r low. Apply dologel oral ointment on ulcers thrice daily. Avoid spicy n oily food, alcohol, tea n coffee. Drink plenty of water n hv fibrous n citrous foods. Visit dentist to rule out oral factors responsible for ulcers.
