what medication ur taking tht is for ischemic heart disease.these drugs can hardly cause any oral ulcer.u hav already done all the treatment for ulcer ,if it still persists it is better to go for biopsy to get proper diagnosis.sometime apthus ulcer can become troublesome but that usually heals well in 7- 10 days with or without any treatment.so it is better for u to go for biopsy rather further delay.u also have nt mentioned about ur oral habits like smoking tobacco ..etc

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Canker sores occurs due to physical or chemical trauma. I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical examination done and find out the cause of recurrence and try to remove it. Take an OPG radiograph
There can be chances of allergy to some food stuffs or can be presence of some dental infections.

Take lukewarm saline gargles, .
Apply Dologel oral ointment topically over the affected area.
Start with multivitamin suplements.
Maintain a good oral hygiene, use antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Stress and hormonal changes can also add up to the condition.

Hope this helps out.

Regards...

hi thank you for ur question.this may one kind of viral recurrent infection,herpes labialis.so if you had previous history of same leison with systemic manifestation like fever,malaise,muscle weakness then nothing to be worried about it,it is self limiting and will be cured automatically.for symptomatic relief you may apply anaesthetic gei before meal,antibiotic mouthwash to prevent secondary bacterial infection,and try to avoid contamination to children,like after applying gel you have to clean your hand before touching your baby.wish you better health ahed.

Hello there ,

Recurrent trauma to the mucous membrane may lead to formation of ulcers or

It may be caused due to several reasons like deficiency or certain vitamins especially vitamin B12 and vitamin C.

start with multivitamin supplements for 7 to 10 days and vitamin C lozenges will help in resolving the problem.

avoid alcohol , carbonated drinks , tobacco chewing and smoking as these may worsen the area affected.

Apply oral antiseptic ,analgesic ointments like dentogel or mucogel topically over the affected area

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

If it is occurring in the same place, biopsy is a must to exclude malignancy / even if local irritation like a misdirected tooth s found to be responsible.
Different places at different times points to a systemic cause - Stress and/or vitamin deficiency are the common ones,,.Immune deficiency and connective tissue disorders may have to be evaluated...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
