Hello,

Poor nutrition and vitamin deficiency will be the cause of mouth ulcers. Proper treatment should be taken for tuberculosis otherwise the general health will deteriorate.

As of now ask him to take more fruits and vegetables in the diet. Polyvitamin tablets like supradyn also are helpful.

Triamcinolone mouth paste (available as over the counter) can help for pain relief and faster recovery from mouth ulcer.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
