Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have cut inside the mouth dont worry you can do is

Apply ointment Anaesthetic Mucopain or Dologel 2 - 3 times a day for a week

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day.

If it doesnt heal you can consult dentist and go for examination and then take antibiotic course .

Hope this will help you.
