Suggest Remedy For Soreness And Pain In Frenulum

I'm not sure what it's called, but the piece of skin that starts at my lower teeth / gums and goes to my lower lip hurts. ( I think it's referred to as a "frenulum? ) I'm not entirely sure what I've done to it? It doesn't seem evident that I cut it or anything, but I can't even talk without it hurting. I've also been trying to avoid eating, as it just hurts too much.

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Pain in the frenulum area could be due to accidental injury while brushing or other activity.It will subside gradually .Apply dologel ointment on the area two to three times a day.

Use salt water gargling.If persistent,consult your local dentist.

Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards,
