Hmmph!
Ms M. Ulcer has a very bad temper and has been "flaring" up at my dar dar way too often lately making his days so sianzZzz and "flaring" up at the same time. I don't even flare up at him, how could she?! So decided to study on her.. hmmph!

What causes it?
There are many processes which can lead to ulceration of the oral tissues. In some cases they are caused by an overreaction by the body's own immune system.
Factors that appear to provoke mouth ulcers include stress, fatigue, illness, injury from accidental biting, hormonal changes, menstruation, sudden weight loss, food allergies and deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron and folic acid.
How to treat it?
Treatments based on antibiotics and steroids are reserved for severe cases, and should be used only under medical supervision. Some people benefit from using the over-the-counter topical gel Bonjela, which contains choline salicylate -- choline salicylate is a local analgesic that helps to reduce the pain and inflammation associated with oral ulcers, or Oracort prescribed by doctors.

Tried many ways to alleviate the pain and restrict diet in a way so that it can recover faster. It totally kills the mood for entertainment.. At times, we use hand language and I ask close-ended questions to communicate as it's just too painful for him to talk.. sayang-sayang.. Maybe need to try taking certain pills to test if it's a lack of that particular vitamin or mineral in his body that causes it..
Hope Ms Ulcer stop pestering my dar dar and keep her distance... he's mine!!!!!
