    Symptomatic treatment is the primary approach to dealing with oral ulcers. If their cause is known, then treatment of that condition is also recommended. Adequate oral hygiene may also help in relieving symptoms. Topical antihistamines, antacids, corticosteroids or applications meant to soothe painful ulcers may be helpful, as may be oral analgesics such as paracetamol or ibuprofen and local anaesthetic lozenges, paints or mouth rinses such as benzocaine and avoiding spicy or hot foods may reduce pain. Rinsing the mouth out with brine (warm salted water) or rubbing garlic on the sore area may help. Ulcers persisting longer than three weeks may require the attention of a medical practitioner.

    as ulcer is a painful condition the relief of symptoms is essential. The topical anesthetics with antiseptics play a major role in relieving the pain.

    Symptomatic treatment is obviously important but care should also be taken that it doesnt recur..
