Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM

Read your query, as you have recuurent ulcers in mouth thos is said as Reuurent Apthous stomatitis this recurrent ulceration can be due to some factors it can be due to Stress or anxiety related , Nutritional deficiency , vitamin deficiency , immune disregulation , hormonal influences .
As you are asking for black dot on cheek this can be healing of trauma bite , melanosis of mucosa , lichenoid reaction I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for examination of cheek it didnt heal in few days . On ulcers you can apply ointment like Mucopain or Dologel on ulcer two - three times a day , you can take vitamin B supplements by consulting with your doctor .

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Mouth ulcers can be by a variety of reasons of which few can be a increased stress level, anemia ,Vitamin B deficiency and food related .

Please check your Hb levels and if you are anemic,take iron tablets consulting your GP doctor.

You can also start multi-vitamins.

If you are in the habit of taking spicy food,avoiding much of spices as this can also provide you relief.

Relax your stress level as that will aggravate the ulcers.

* On the ulcer you can apply Dentogel/Mucogel 2-3 times daily. Use chlorhexidine mouthwash for a while.

If still persisting consult your local dentist.

Hope this was helpful.

Thanks and warm regards.
