Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
Dry scratchy spot can be due to aphthous ulcers developed either due to nutritional deficiencies or due to poor oral hygiene habits/oral habits like smoking,tobacco chewing.
Apply mucopain gel on the affected site.
Nutritional supplements has to be administered.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Discontinue smoking/pan chewing.
In severe cases,steroids has to be administered.
Take care.
