How to treat geographic tongue? Here are some useful methods to teach you

Zinc deficiency is one of the main factors that cause geographic tongue, so patients with geographic tongue can supplement zinc under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, they also need to pay attention to rest and diet. If they have anemia, diseases such as parasites, etc., they must also be treated in time.

1. Take zinc supplement under the guidance of a doctor. For example, if "geographic tongue" is caused by a lack of trace element zinc, you should check the trace element regularly and take appropriate zinc preparations under the guidance of a doctor. Zinc supplementation generally takes 3-6 months, which is divided into a correction period and a consolidation period. The dosage of zinc supplementation is different in different periods. Therefore, it is best to supplement zinc under the guidance of a doctor. The zinc preparation commonly used for children is Xin Xi Bao Tablets. Xin Xi Bao Tablets are rapidly absorbed, have high bioavailability, are non-irritating to the digestive tract, and are the most widely used. The egg roll flavor can also greatly improve children's compliance with medication, and it is currently recognized as the safest and most easily absorbed zinc supplement.

2. Pay attention to rest and diet . Make sure your child gets enough rest and avoids excessive fatigue. The diet should be nutritious, eat more foods rich in vitamins, and add complementary foods in time. Prevent children from being partial or picky eaters, which may lead to gastrointestinal disorders and malnutrition.

3. Eliminate lesions and keep the oral cavity clean. Certain bacteria in the mouth may also cause "geographic tongue", so carefully check your baby's teeth, tonsils, and buccal mucosa for infection. If infected, they must be removed promptly. Keep your mouth clean by rinsing your mouth after meals and brushing your teeth or rinsing your mouth before going to bed. For babies with persistent illness, we should understand the condition in detail and pay attention to the damage to their mucous membranes. If necessary, we can give them vitamin B complex or zinc sulfate preparations. If they have Candida albicans infection, they can be treated with nystatin.

4. Actively treat anemia and parasitic diseases. Babies with intestinal parasite infection should be given deworming treatment.
