Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have mouth ulcers since past 4 years. Well there can be many reasons for ulcer in your mouth like canker sore , cold sore , inflammation of taste buds due to allergic reaction or irritation due to any acidic or spicy food , dental infection and ulcer due to acidic reflux . There are rare chance that it could be due to malignancuy as well. Mouth ulcer in your case seems mostly due to irritation due to acidic food or acid reflux , acidic or spicy food. I would suggest you to avoid hot , spicy and acidic food , consult oral pathologist for proper diagnosis. You should go for biopsy of lesion as well to find out exact cause and can start treatment as per that. Apply dologel on these ulcers. You should apply desi ghee on these ulcers as well. Maintain oral hygiene. Do rinses with antiseptic mouth wash. take multivitamin tablets as well. Doctor may refer you to gastroenterologist .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
