Suggest Treatment For Ulcer On Roof Of Mouth
I have an ulcer on the roof of my mouth that started a few days ago with some little pimple.like spots/ridges and now it's really sore and aching. I've been rinsing with mineral salts but apart from it hurting like crazy when I do that several times a day, it hasn't changed and is still inflamed. Should I be patient or check,it with a doc?

Hello,
Thanks for consulting HCM,
As you have ulcer on roof of mouth this can be due to nutritional deficiency , vitamin B 12 deficiency , hormonal influence , stress induced . For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for examination and Inmeantime you can apply ointment like Mucopain or Mugel on ulcer and take vitamin B supplements by consulting with your local doctor.
Hope this will help you.
