Mouth ulcers?

Question

i have quite a few mouth ulcers , could anyone tell me how you get rid of yours and whats the quickest way?

thank you

Answer 1

start taking zinc and vitamin c tablets now because they help your body to heal itself.  Using antibacterial mouthwash like corsodyl will help to kill germs and soothe and also 'kenalog' or 'adcortyl in orobase' from the chemist applied at night will shrink them down in no time.  For pain relief during the day use medijel benzocaine gel.. hope this helps

Answer 2

I just use warm salt water.  It takes them away quickly and its less annoying than having to buy something and smear it on them.  Dr. Oz on Oprah says that warm salt water is always the best for things like this anyway because it is more natural to the body than other alternatives.

Answer 3

The most common type of mouth ulcers are called 'apthous' ulcers. They are probably viral. (though no virus has been identified.)This means they should not be given antibiotics as there have no effect. There behaviour is similar to cold sores, in that they are recurrent, come out when we are run down and we never seem to develop immunity. Here the similarity ends, because unlike herpetic cold sores there is no treatment.

Each ulcer lasts about 10 days, but you can get further crops erupting, so each episode may last longer than that.

Ice,ice cream and cold soft items, become the easiest things to eat. Teething gels sometimes help. There are 2 prescription drugs for apthous ulcers, Corlan Pellets and Adcortyl in Orobase paste. Both are steroids, only reduce the nipping a bit and neither hastens resolution.

Answer 4

sounds like herpes zoster or maybe hematoma, it could also be a vitamin B defiency you got too. maybe you are stressed and tensed? you can call a dentist and ask what could be best for mouth ulcers.

Answer 5

Well, if you have a lot, they could be an infection or virus, in which case a doc needs to see you to make sure its nothing serious. Doc's can prescribe a great "Magic Mouthwash" solution, which soothes and numbs while helping infection. It doesn't taste very good, but it really relieves the sores. Also good for strep or chemotherapy. A good doc will wirte out a formula for your scrip, with the ingredients. Here are some common ingredients of different types of "magic mouthwash"

Diphenhydramine - an antihistamine to reduce inflammation

Glucocorticoids - to reduce inflammation

Lidocaine - a local anesthetic to relieve pain

Maalox - an antacid formulation which acts as a coating agent

Nystatin- an antifungal for candidiasis

Sucralfate - a coating agent

Tetracycline - an antibiotic
