I have a mouth ulcer for a very long time.  Do not know wat kind it is.  Because of some whitenees in my mouth someone suggested oral thrust.  Some of the dentists prescribed some paste etc without taking a biopsy.  Lot of trouble eating. I have acid reflux problem too.  Guide me. Thanks
Thanks for posting your query in ChatDoctorthere are many causes of mouth ulcers . It can be due to 1. Trauma from teeth or hard food biting2. Infection (viral, fungal/oral thrush or bacterial)3. Nutrition deficiency 4. Oral carcinoma 5. Poor hygiene6. Reflux disease7. Tobbaco and cigarette use etc.oral thrush if present is a candida infection and presents as a pseudomembrane which can be removed easily by antifungal ointment like clotrimazole... it presents mostly in person with poor oral hygiene. As you have acid reflux I would suggest you to take antacid syrup twice daily after food this will help your ulcer to heal.take multivitamins and use antiseptic rinses apply anti-inflammatory ointment over it . If it still persists for more than 10 days after treatment I would advise you to go to your dentist for further checkup and biopsy if needed.thanks
