I frequently get mouth ulcers. What medications or over-the-counter treatments can I use to treat them?

Asked by Female, 28 · 31 minutes ago

Frequent mouth ulcers are very common and usually harmless. For quick pain relief, you can apply over-the-counter topical gels containing lidocaine or benzocaine directly to the sore. To speed up healing and reduce inflammation, a generic triamcinolone acetonide dental paste can be very effective. Rinsing with warm salt water or an antiseptic chlorhexidine mouthwash also helps keep the area clean. Sometimes, daily B-complex vitamins or zinc supplements can prevent future outbreaks. Please avoid spicy, acidic, or sharp foods while healing. If any ulcer persists for more than two weeks, it is best to consult a doctor or dentist.
