Since your current gel isn't helping, you can try an oral paste containing triamcinolone acetonide (0.1%), which reduces inflammation and accelerates healing. For pain relief, a topical lidocaine gel can be applied before meals. Rinsing with a chlorhexidine mouthwash also helps keep the area clean and prevents infection. Sometimes, ulcers are linked to nutritional gaps, so taking a B-complex and zinc supplement might help. Meanwhile, avoid spicy, acidic, or very hot foods. If the ulcer does not heal within 10 to 14 days, please consult a healthcare professional for a physical examination.

I have had a mouth ulcer for the past five days, and Ora Fast gel has not provided any relief. What alternative medicine can I use to treat it?
