Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello, I understand your concern. I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query.
There is need to do Gram's staining from the sore area. It is likely to be some infection.
Once the report available the plan of treatment can be decided.
This sore hurts more when you eat spicy foods, so avoid spicy foods until this will be heeled.
Or you can use mouth lignocaine jelly under your doctors guidance. This will anaesthetise your roof for some time, so you can eat whatever you have.
Avoid eating hard thing which injures you.
I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/DrArun. Thank you. Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist.
