"Do I have ulcers in my mouth?"

Mouth ulcers can appear for various reasons, such as irritation during brushing, consuming very hot food or drinks, fatigue, illness, or stress. They typically heal on their own in 5 to 7 days. Using a soft-bristled toothbrush, alcohol-free mouthwash, and avoiding spicy or irritating foods can help. Gargling with salt water may provide relief, but it's important not to rub the sores. Orabase paste can also help reduce irritation while eating and does not require a prescription.
