I have consulted local Dentists but not getting any relief by Jel & mouth washs prescribed by them .  Kindly advice whom i should consult next.  I m located in Delhi.  .... Regards, D Mitra
Hi, It would have been great if you could have mentioned the duration of the patch. Anyway, if the mouthwash and gels have been ineffective, and you have exceeded 15 days with the same patch/ ulcer, I feel It's time you see a maxillofacial surgeon who could exclude any other diagnosis. In the meantime, try rinsing your mouth with warm saline rinses and apply topical denote (or a similar formulation) to the ulcer just before having food. This will make you comfortable during eating. This is not the definitive treatment, and is just supportive. Wish you good health. Regards.
