I have an ulcer that won't heal?

It is possible for an ulcer inside the lower lip to take a few weeks to heal on its own. To help with the healing process, it is recommended to avoid hot or irritating foods, acidic juices, and spices. Using a soft-bristled toothbrush and alcohol-free mouthwash can also promote healing. If the ulcer does not show improvement or persists after trying these measures for a week, it is advisable to consult a doctor or dentist for further evaluation.
