Which Doctor Should I Consult As Having Mouth Ulcers?
I am having mouth ulcers from last week. In a month I suffer at least 2 weeks. Used B.complex and other methods but no use. Can any one suggest which Doctor I should consult for this? I mean GP or Dentist or anyone else. Please answer urgently. I am suffering like hell.

Good evening
Oral ulceration twice in a month for a week, is suggestive of oral apthous ulcers, generally caused by viral infection, you may have ulceration due to bad stomach, in my opinion you must consult a dentist who is either an oral surgeon or a oral medicine and radiologist in your nearest locality. meanwhile you can use anesthetic oral gel for temporary relief and use antiviral therapy for 3 days as per the your physician's guidelines.
