Autumn lip blisters_Autumn mouth corner blisters

Every time people reach autumn and winter, they may have blisters in their mouths because they cannot drink water and eat less fruits and vegetables. This will not only put a great burden on the human body, but also have a great impact on a person's image over time. Therefore, if you have blisters in your mouth in autumn and winter, you should first look at the cause and choose the appropriate method for treatment and recovery based on the cause, so that you can get better faster.

What to do if you have blisters at the corners of your mouth

The mouth is a very important organ. We use it to talk and eat. If blisters appear at the corners of the mouth, even eating will be painful, and it will seriously affect the beauty of the face. What should we do to prevent mouth blisters? If blisters have already appeared at the corners of the mouth, how should we treat it? Let's take a look!

1. Grapefruit clears heat

People usually eat more grapefruit in winter. Grapefruit has a fresh smell, a lot of flesh, and is very rich in water. In fact, the flesh of grapefruit is cold in nature and tastes sour, so it is very effective in resolving phlegm and relieving cough, as well as clearing away heat and detoxifying, and promoting digestion. In order to prevent and treat blisters at the corners of the mouth, we should eat more grapefruit.

2. Eat more vitamins

In fact, another reason for getting angry is lack of vitamins. Eating more fruits is also to supplement the vitamins lacking in the body. We should eat more foods containing vitamin B and vitamin C. If the blisters at the corners of the mouth are very serious, you can directly take vitamin B2 or grind B2 into powder and apply it on the mouth.

3. Gargle with salt water

You must pay attention to oral hygiene and develop a good habit of rinsing your mouth after eating and brushing your teeth before going to bed, especially not eating after brushing your teeth. It is best to gargle with light salt water 1 to 3 times a day.

4. Taking medication

When taking traditional Chinese medicine with the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, it is best to drink plenty of water during the medication period to avoid the impact of the medicine on the kidneys.

5. Apply ointment

Do not break the blisters. If it itches or hurts, you can apply erythromycin ointment. We just need to apply it correctly according to the instructions on the ointment. In the early stages of blisters at the corners of the mouth, applying anti-inflammatory ointment twice a day can have a good auxiliary treatment effect. Since the ointment is administered topically, the side effects will be smaller than those of oral medications. If the ointment does not work and the condition becomes worse, you should go to the hospital immediately and follow the doctor's arrangements to avoid delaying the disease.

Causes of mouth blisters

1. Caused by herpes virus

As a result, the patient will experience itching at the corners of the mouth, which will then turn red and develop multiple small blisters.

2. Lack of vitamin B2

Blisters at the corners of the mouth caused by vitamin deficiency are common. To prevent this disease, you should pay more attention to dietary nutrition. Some people develop small blisters at the corners of their mouths, accompanied by bleeding and erosion. This is because the human body's vigorous metabolism leads to a lack of nutrients such as vitamins. If they are not supplemented in time, it is easy to develop angular herpes. In addition, when the corners of the mouth become cracked, people like to lick them with their tongue, which will bring microorganisms in the saliva to the cracks, causing infection and aggravating inflammation.

3. Zinc deficiency

About 10.67% of people who are zinc deficient will experience symptoms such as erosion or cracking of the corners of the mouth. The corners of the mouth and oral cavity should be kept clean to avoid irritation of the eroded areas at the corners of the mouth by hard or hot foods. The food utensils should also be kept clean. Do not let your child lick the eroded corners of the mouth to prevent aggravating the erosion and bringing the germs on the corners of the mouth into the mouth.

For patients who are infected with herpes simplex virus for the first time, oral antiviral drugs are given, and the treatment course usually takes 5-10 days to recover. For recurrent patients, oral antiviral drugs should be given within 24 hours of the onset of prodromal symptoms such as local burning sensation, and the course of treatment generally requires 5 days.

Things to note when you have blisters at the corners of your mouth

1. Relieve tension and ensure adequate sleep and rest.

2. Keep your lips dry.

3. Replace your toothbrush promptly after recovery to avoid virus residue on the toothbrush, which may cause secondary infection faster.

4. Try to avoid irritation from hands, face washing, wind and sun exposure, and nasal discharge to the affected area.

5. Drinking more water and taking multivitamins orally can help in recovering from the disease.
