Suggest Treatment For Soreness In The Mouth

I recently got a cold and I have been dealing with that but at the same time, I've noticed that my incisive papilla behind my two front teeth and the roof of my mouth has been irritated and a bit sore this is the first day it's made an appearance but it's bugging me like crazy! I don't smoke and never have so I know it isn't related to that. I have eaten food that was too hot about 3 or 4 days ago followed by raw baby carrots so I'm wondering if maybe it's caused by that? Also are there any simple treatments to help it heal if it's irritated from that?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query it seems that you are suffering from Stomatitis that has caused inflammation inside the mouth leading to swollen incisive papilla and also irritated roof of mouth..
It has occurred due to burning with hot foods as well as infection and inflammation caused due to cold.

I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like blood tests can help in diagnosis..
Treatment of underlying cause will relieve the symptoms..
As of now you can start gargling with a numbing mouthwash containing Lignocaine to relieve the symptoms.
You can also take a multivitamin tablet daily..
You can take anti inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen..
Suck ice and do cool water rinses..
Avoid spicy food..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
