Suggest Treatment For Itchy Mouth Ulcers

I have had mouth ulcers for over 2 weeks which have almost cleared with using an anti inflammatory mouthwash and anti bacterial mouthwash. My lips would swell at night and I am still getting slight numbness on the outside of my lips. However now I have stopped using the mouthwash my lips have started itching and I can feel the inside getting lumpy. I have only ever had the occasional ulcer and have never had anything like this before. I am 54 have type 2 diabetes (hereditary, not due to obesity) and have hypertension (also hereditary).

Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM

Read your query as you have ulcers dont be worried so much ulceration can be due to nutritional deficiency , vitamin B12 deficiency , hormonal influences , stress induced .
For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for examination and you can apply ointment like Mugel or Mucopain on ulcers . You can also take vitamin B supplements by consulting with your local doctor .

Hope this will help you.
