How Can A Mouth Ulcer And Burning Sensation In The Mouth Be Treated?

I have a very bad canker sore and it is due to my eating a piece of frozen candy that had carmel that was frozen,.. I have a plate on the bottom and I injured my gum and part of my inner gum below my bottom lip. I have been getting dizzy now and then, which I never had before except if I had some illness. My mouth is burning and there is a large blister. I am washing it out with salt water and using Canka which a pharmacist suggested. I realize it could take awhile to heal but I was more concerned about the dizziness. I am 81 years old and just maybe a little more worried then normally. Would appreciate any thing you can tell me.

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of mouth ulcer and burning sensation in the mouth which could be due to minor injury to soft tissue mucousa, acidic food, poor oral hygiene, hard food, and infection like thrush. It could be due to recurrent aphthous ulcer. I would suggest you to avoid spicy food and acidic drink.do warm saline rinses. You should drink plenty of fluids. Use antiseptic mouthwash like chlorhexidine. Usually they resolve by themselves in few days. If the condition do not resolve in a week then consult dentist for proper examination and to rule out other conditions like canker sore. Doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics and numbing gel.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
