Can mouth ulcers patches be used for tongue ulcers?
When a patient has a tongue ulcer, it is possible to use oral ulcer patches. Since tongue ulcers are a type of oral ulcer, the same medication used in traditional Chinese medicine can also be applied. This includes using oral ulcer patches or lozenges, which can be directly applied to the ulcerated surface. These treatments can promote the healing of the ulcer and play a crucial role in the treatment of the ulcer. Additionally, when experiencing a tongue ulcer, patients should drink more water, eat a bland diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, refrain from overeating, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and appropriately supplement with some vitamins, all of which can help in the body’s recovery and adjustment.
