Rinsing the mouth with salt water is a common recommendation for those suffering from ulcers in the mouth. You can also create a paste with salt and water which can be applied directly to the tongue, though this can be uncomfortable. Food remedies such as applying butter to the ulcer can minimize the pain. You can also create a paste of peepul tree leaves or honey to help the ulcer heal more quickly. Milk from a banyan tree can also increase heal time, but this cure should only be applied in the morning or evening when it will not interfere with eating. Consuming papaya, green bananas or apples have also been shown to help ulcers on the tongue heal. Some recommend consuming milk or curds to increase your calcium intake as this can help your body fight off the sore. Canker sores can be treated with medication that will dull the pain and help the ulcer heal. Keeping the mouth clean is essential when you are battling ulcers. Brush your teeth regularly and use mouth wash or a salt rinse to rid your mouth of excess bacteria or irritants. Be gentle when cleaning around the ulcer as your toothbrush bristles can cause irritation to the sore which can make your condition worse. Eliminate items like hot foods, foods which are spicy or acidic while your sore is healing as this can cause further irritation. For ayurvedic treatment consult me online
