Suggest treatment for painful mouth ulcers
Patient: I am suffering from mouth ulcer for last 2 years. Earlier it used to appear as a white circle inside the chin and tounge. Now-a-days the size has become very big and appears mainly on inside chin.  It's painful. Tried several medicines, but no use. Pls help Doctor: Hi..Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...As per your complain it seems that you have Major Apthous Ulcers as you told that they are large in size and major apthous ulcers has a size more than 10 mm..Apthous ulcers that do not respond to any other treatments are finally treated by Steroids..You should take a short course of steroids under supervision of your physician..Along with it take a multivitamin tablet daily..For pain and inflammation Ibuprofen can be taken..Do warm saline gargles..Soda bicarb gargle will ay help..For localized relief from pain and discomfort apply a numbing gel containing Lignocaine over the ulcers for relief especially during meals..Hope this information helps..Thanks and regards..Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora..
