Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.
Mouth ulcer might be due to nutritional deficiencies, stress induced or use of NSAIDS like ibuprofen etc.
From the history it's clear that the ulcer is due to intake of ibuprofen. I advice you to
- Stop NSAIDs
- Avoid spicy and sour foods - including citrus fruits that can trigger mouth ulcer
- Have plenty of oral fluids & regularly rinse your of mouth.
- Take Vitamin B Complex for better healing
- If painful apply antiseptic gel
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.
Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
