What Is a Mouth Ulcer?
6. How Can You Treat a Mouth Ulcer at Home?
There are several methods that can be implemented from home to reduce healing time. Rinsing with saltwater, increasing vitamin intake, and using an over-the-counter product are all common at-home treatments.
There are also ways people can reduce pain. Methods include placing ice on sores to reduce swelling, placing tea bags on the ulcer, and applying milk of magnesia. If eating is very painful, it may be a good idea to avoid rough, chewy, or acidic foods until the area has healed.
