Metrogyl DG Gel Forte contains metronidazole and chlorhexidine, which target bacteria, but many common mouth sores are inflammatory, which is likely why you haven't seen relief yet. To help you eat, you can try a local anesthetic gel containing lidocaine applied directly to the sore before meals to temporarily numb the pain. Gently rinsing with warm salt water and avoiding spicy or acidic foods will also help. If the sore does not improve in a few days, please see your doctor or dentist for an evaluation.

No, Metrogyl DG Forte is not a direct pain reliever. It is an antiseptic and antibacterial gel containing Metronidazole and Chlorhexidine, which helps treat mouth ulcers and gum infections by killing harmful bacteria. While curing the infection will eventually reduce discomfort and promote healing, it does not provide immediate numbing or pain relief. For quick pain relief from mouth ulcers, you should use a gel specifically formulated with a local anesthetic (such as Lignocaine). Please consult your doctor or dentist for a proper diagnosis and prescription.
