The inner wall of the mouth turns black

The mouth is an important chewing organ of ours. It comes into contact with a lot of food every day. If we do not pay attention to oral hygiene, it is easy to breed bacteria and affect the health of the oral cavity. Some people find that the inner wall of their mouth is black, but they usually eat a light diet and basically do not eat heavy-tasting or black foods, which makes them confused. So, what is going on?

If the oral mucosa is black, it may be caused by pigmentation or heavy metals. If it is caused by food, it may be caused by tooth decay. It is recommended that you go to the dental department for examination. If it is caused by pigmentation, you can avoid treatment and the symptoms will gradually improve. At the same time, test the blood to see if the heavy metal content exceeds the standard.

In your case, you may have a microbial infection of the oral mucosa. It is recommended that you go to the stomatology department for a microbial culture to see what kind of microorganisms are causing the infection, and then take targeted treatment measures. At present, you can use baking soda used for making dough at home, add water to make a 2% sodium bicarbonate solution, and use a cotton swab to wipe the oral mucosa. This solution is weakly alkaline and can inhibit the reproduction of microorganisms, thereby relieving your symptoms. Eat less spicy food, quit smoking and drinking, drink more water, and you can take Tongrentang's Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets and vitamin C for a period of time. If it doesn't work, get checked.

This situation is considered to be oral ulcers, which are mostly related to zinc and vitamin B deficiency. If it does not heal for a long time, it may become cancerous. A biopsy is needed to clarify the specific situation. The black color of the above-mentioned mucosa is generally not related to oral cancer and generally does not require special treatment. If there are symptoms such as ulcers, tin powder and dexamethasone acetate patch can be used for treatment as appropriate.
