How to cure tongue ulcer quickly? Quick treatment tips

One of the most common oral diseases is oral ulcers. Ulcers are also easy to appear on the tongue. If you are prone to getting inflamed, don’t like to drink water, and always eat spicy and irritating foods, it is easy to cause oral ulcers. Applying watermelon frost or Yunnan Baiyao to the affected area is very effective.

1. Watermelon frost: It has the effects of clearing away heat and purging fire, reducing swelling and relieving pain. It has been regarded as a good medicine for throat and oral diseases by doctors of all dynasties. Gu Shicheng, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty, officially included it in the "Compendium of Ulcer Medicine" for more than 200 years. Grind a few pieces of watermelon frost into powder and apply it to the ulcer several times a day. The effect is good.

2. Gargle with honey: Honey has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying when taken internally, and can heal sores, relieve pain and promote cell regeneration when applied externally. To treat oral ulcers, you can gargle with 10% honey juice; or wash your mouth clean and use a sterilized cotton swab dipped in honey to apply it to the ulcer surface. Do not eat after application. After about 15 minutes, you can swallow the honey and saliva, and then continue to apply it. Repeat this several times a day.

3. Yunnan Baiyao: Yunnan Baiyao is a famous medicine that can remove blood stasis and stop bleeding, promote blood circulation and relieve pain, detoxify and reduce swelling. Modern research has confirmed that it can fight inflammation and heal wounds, and is beneficial to the anti-inflammatory and healing of wounds. Apply Yunnan Baiyao to the oral ulcer wound twice a day and it will heal in 2-3 days.

4. Watermelon: Watermelon is a natural traditional Chinese medicine “Baihu Decoction”, which has the good effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat. Watermelon frost comes from this. Take half a watermelon, dig out the watermelon pulp, squeeze out the juice, hold the juice in your mouth, and swallow it after about 2-3 minutes. Then drink new melon juice and repeat several times. The part of watermelon that has the most heat-clearing effect is the green rind, which is the part between the red flesh and the green skin. When using this therapy, you should eat more green rind. In addition, you can also spray the watermelon frost powder directly onto the ulcer.

5. Borneol: Go to a Chinese medicine store to buy borneol, dip it directly on the affected area, twice a day, and it will basically be healed in 3 days. However, borneol is pungent and cool, so it should not be used frequently.

You should pay attention to keeping your mouth clean, rinse your mouth with light salt water frequently, quit smoking and drinking, have a regular daily routine, and ensure adequate sleep.
