Hi, I am a mother of a 2yr old girl and she is getting recurrent canker sores(usually on the inside of the lips near the gums and on the corners, not sure abt the rest of the mouth she never allows me to have a peek into her mouth).Its been almost a yr now and the same problem persists.I dont know wat to do...how can i relieve her from this pain.No medication has shown any fruitfull results and the same problem comes again within days.She has become so weak now...Although she is very active but she is unable to eat anything the way she used to.Please guide me through this in detail.
Hi, Thanks for posting the query, Canker sores occurs due to physical or chemical trauma. Visit to a Periodontist and get clinical evaluation done , look for any sharp tooth causing irritation. Apply colonel oral ointment topically over the affected area. Take vitamin supplements. Maintain a good oral hygiene, clean the mouth with antiseptic solution using handkerchief or cotton this will prevent infection and promote healing. Hope this helps out. Regards.
