Are mouth ulcers contagious?
Mouth ulcers aren’t contagious, and there is no person-to-person spread.
There are many factors why they develop, like stress, biting your cheek, a change in hormones, and eating hot food to name a few.
How long do mouth ulcers last for?
Mouth ulcers usually go away by themselves after a week or so, so you’ll need to take care to keep from aggravating the area until then.
We’d recommend avoiding spicy, rough, or very hot or cold foods until your mouth ulcer has passed.
What is the cause of a mouth ulcer?
A mouth ulcer is usually nothing to worry about and is typically caused by accidentally biting the inside of your cheek.
It may be caused by other reasons like a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection, or even some medical conditions.
Your mouth ulcer should go away on its own in about 2 weeks, but if there is no improvement after this time, speak to your doctor as an ulcer that doesn’t heal may be a sign of mouth cancer.
What is the best treatment for a mouth ulcer?
Mouth ulcers will go away on their own, but if you’d like to speed up healing, there are treatment options available.
