ive recently been suffering from a load of mouth ulcers, but i havent been stressed or run down.any suggestion

Question

to why im getting them?

Answer 1

Could be something you're eating. Walnuts give me ulcers if i eat too many. i once went to the doctors because i had ulcers and my throat was sore, turned out i had ulcers all down my throat too. now i know what i'm feeling when i eat walnuts i know when i've had too many. i ought to give them up entirely really but they're so yummy!!! sometimes salty things can flare up ulcers too. see what your doc says but i suspect it will be what i just said. just try cutting certain things out of your diet or watch out for warning signs.

good luck, i know just how painful they are!

Answer 2

Have you quit smoking over the last few weeks? One side effect of giving up smoking is mouth ulcers. I was riddled with them when I gave up.
If not it could be a food allergy or intolerence.
If not, my final suggestion is if you are feeling a bit run down, doing too much or your immune system is a bit low, this can cause you mouth ulcers.
Mouth ulcers are not a sign of being anything too serious, so dont let anyone scare you with that.

Answer 3

I used to get mouth ulcers all the time. I had seven ulcers in one go last year! A lot of things can trigger a mouth ulcer such as eating nuts, fresh fruit, spicy food, stress and lack of sleep can be another and the most common of all is burning your mouth with food that is far too hot in temperature, bitting your tongue!

Answer 4

Have you had a sore throat also? There has been a virus going around that all my kids have had, sore throats, low fever and a mouth full of ulcers. To help them heal some, try the Crest Pro Health mouth wash. It DOES NOT burn. My oldest son used it for about 3 days and they healed up faster then my children that were on medicine did. Good luck, if it is along those lines, it seems to be viral and med didnt touch it.

Answer 5

What you may have are called cold sores or fever blisters.. Here's some info on how to treat them, and some other info that may be helpful...
Treatment Overview


There is no cure for cold sores, nor is there a cure for the herpes simplex virus (HSV) that causes them. Most cold sores will go away on their own. However, medications may slightly reduce the duration of cold sores and sometimes prevent a future outbreak.

Treatment with medications depends on whether you are having a first outbreak, a recurrent outbreak, or you are trying to prevent future outbreaks.

When treating a first outbreak of cold sores, oral antiviral medications may reduce pain and slightly improve healing time.

For treatment of recurrent cold sores, the following medications may reduce the severity and duration of the outbreak:2

Topical creams or ointments, which are available with or without a prescription, can reduce pain, itching, and healing time.
Oral antiviral medications, which are available by prescription only, are used when the first symptoms (such as burning or itching) develop. These medications have little effect once the sore develops.

You may not develop cold sores when you are first infected with HSV. If cold sores do develop when you are first infected, they may be more severe than in later outbreaks. During the first outbreak of cold sores, the blisters may spread to any part of the mouth.

Once infected, HSV remains in your body and may cause cold sores to return throughout your lifetime (recurrent cold sores). Most people have 3 to 4 outbreaks per year, although a few people have more than one cold sore attack per month.1

Recurrent cold sores usually develop where facial skin and the lip meet. About 6 to 48 hours before a cold sore is visible, you may feel tingling, burning, itching, numbness, tenderness, or pain in the affected area; this is called the prodromal stage.

Some common triggers that cause cold sores to return include:

Sunlight exposure, especially on the lips.
Stress.
Fatigue.
Other infections, such as a cold or influenza.
Food allergies.
Dental treatment.
Injury to the lips or gums.
An impaired immune system, either due to medications (such as corticosteroids) or because of an autoimmune disease.
Cosmetic surgery, such as dermabrasion or laser skin resurfacing.
Hormonal changes caused by a woman's menstrual cycle.
Pregnancy.

Answer 6

Eating a lot of spicy food can cause the ulcers. Constipation, insufficient sleep and eating junk food with too much fat can have the same effect.
Mouth ulcers are a problem that the medical profession have no real clues about.

Answer 7

Do you take vitamins? Load up on b (I use Solaray Mega-B Stress) and folic acid. I had "trench mouth" - ulcers on my tongue and bleeding teeth. Dentist prescribed an antibiotic rinse and lots of vitamins. Wonderful man, great cure. Even the ulcers have healed completely. It took about 2 months total.

Answer 8

Since changing my toothpaste, my oral health has been top notch! My last visit to the dentists was the first for over 30 years without needing treatment.

Avoid Fluoride toothpaste, it is a toxin up there with Asrenic.

Also give Aspartame a wide berth, that also is toxic.

Answer 9

Depends on what type of ulcers.. Some can be caused by a certain virus. This virus remains in your body, dorment most of time, only acts up when your immune system is a little weakened (You do not necessarily have to feel sick.)

Answer 10

take a spoonful of honey,mixed with a spoonful of white distilled vinegar, in a glasswith about 3 ozs of warm water. gargle real good and and do this at least three times a day to start with.then at least once a day for two days you should be pretty healed by then.
