My husband often gets canker sores in his mouth and it causes him pain. Is there a product that can alleviate the pain? Do you have any advice?

There are products available that can help relieve the pain caused by mouth ulcers. Avoiding irritating or spicy foods, using a soft-bristled toothbrush, and using an alcohol-free mouthwash can also help. If the ulcers persist for more than 7 to 10 days or if there are many at once, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional. In the meantime, taking Tylenol can help alleviate the pain, and applying a product like Orabase before eating can reduce friction on the ulcers.
