What are the common root causes for mouth ulcer and what are the treatments/remedies we have to cure/suppress?
I suffer from it once in 2/3 months and it stays for 3/4 days. Torture.
Suggestions please.
Heatiness... drink lots of water. have more frequent oil baths.
gargle mouth with warm salt water for relief
best treatment is bonjela gel
if you are getting it too often, check your brushing style
Thanks Nov. Will "once in 2/3 months" come under "too often"? I don't know.
Some people say it appears due to Vitamin B deficiency. Is that true?
I think if you are looking for anything more than home-grown advise, its best to seek professional help.
What I told you earlier is what was passed on from my elders.
Also, all these suggestions will NOT have any side-effects, so even if they don't work for you, it would not be a loss. :)
Thanks Nov and Params!
