Mouth ulcers

[jampots]

I had a mouth ulcer yesterday which was annoying but now have woken up with about 3 or 4 sore patches around the edges of my tongue - not sure if they're ulcers yet to be honest but gosh v annoying. Going on hols tomorrow and need a quick cure?

Rinstead pastilles are great for mouth ulcers. You can get them in most chemists.

Hope that helps.

lockets - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

yes a bit spikey - have also been sleeping for England - what can I expect ?

ok - i can probably deal with that but my tongue is soo sore. Will o/d on Rinstead I think - thanks LMN I think we have some of those but forgot all about them

I always use bonjela, it doesn't numb the tongue for very long but offers a bit of relief.

you might have geographic tongue. i had it when i was pregnant. nothing to worry about, just a bit annoying. i think it can be a sign of some nutritional deficiency - google it and see what you can find. mine went away as soon as i'd had dd.

We've had that virus thing too... seems to culminate in 24hrs of high temperature then disappears as fast as it came...

Is this ulcer causing virus catchable via the mumsnet website. Yikes. I'd better do some housework then.
