Mouth Ulcer Treatment - #18644
A few weeks ago, I started getting small but painful sores inside my mouth, mainly on my tongue and inner cheeks. At first, I thought it was just because I accidentally bit my cheek while eating, but then more of these ulcers started appearing. They are white or yellowish in the center with a red border, and they burn a lot, especially when I eat spicy or sour food. Even drinking tea or coffee has become uncomfortable because it stings so much. I usually get one or two mouth ulcers every few months, but this time, they keep coming back before the previous ones heal completely. It’s really frustrating because even talking feels uncomfortable sometimes, and I feel a burning sensation in my mouth throughout the day. I have no idea why I’m getting so many mouth ulcers all of a sudden. I read that mouth ulcers can be caused by stress, acidity, vitamin deficiencies, or even poor digestion. I do have a stressful job, and I often skip meals or eat junk food. Could my eating habits be the reason behind these ulcers? Also, I tend to sleep late and wake up feeling exhausted—does a lack of sleep have anything to do with this? I want to treat this naturally with Ayurvedic remedies. Are there any herbal treatments or home remedies that can help heal these ulcers faster and prevent them from coming back? I’ve heard that honey, ghee, and coconut oil can help, but I’m not sure how to use them properly. Also, are there any specific Ayurvedic medicines or dietary changes that I should follow to get rid of this issue permanently? Should I be concerned that these ulcers could be a sign of something more serious? When should I see a doctor? Any guidance on this would be really helpful.

The mouth ulcers you are experiencing are likely a result of a combination of factors, including your stressful job, erratic eating habits, potential vitamin deficiencies, and possibly an underlying imbalance in your digestive fire, or agni. In Ayurvedic terms, this condition may be linked to an excess of pitta dosha, characterized by heat and inflammation in the body. To address your symptoms, begin by focusing on your diet and lifestyle.
First, incorporate soothing and cooling foods into your diet. Include fresh fruits like pears, apples, and melons, and vegetables like cucumber and zucchini, which can help balance pitta. Avoid spicy, sour, and processed foods, as they can exacerbate your symptoms. Aim for regular meal times, focusing on wholesome, easily digestible foods like khichdi (a mix of rice and lentils cooked with mild spices), which will support digestion.
For specific herbal remedies, consider taking a mixture of ghee and honey. Combine one teaspoon of warm ghee with one teaspoon of raw honey and consume it twice daily. This can help soothe the mucous membranes in your mouth and reduce inflammation. Coconut oil is beneficial as well; swish it around your mouth for about 10 minutes daily (oil pulling) to help reduce bacteria and promote healing.
To address stress, consider incorporating relaxation techniques such as yoga or meditation into your daily routine. Prioritizing sleep is essential, so establish a bedtime routine that allows you to rest adequately. Going to bed early and ensuring a calming environment can significantly improve your overall wellbeing.
Be mindful of any persistent or severe symptoms, such as changes in the appearance of ulcers, excessive pain, or if they do not heal within two weeks. If so, it would be wise to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions. By implementing these dietary changes and remedies, you can work towards healing and preventing future occurrences of mouth ulcers.
