What is the pain in the upper jaw?

  Pain in the palate is a common oral problem, mostly caused by fire, which can lead to the accumulation of heat in the Shao-Yin and San-Jiao and thus local inflammatory irritation, which can be seen on examination as redness and swelling in the palate with a purple color, and most patients need to lie on their backs if they have a cold.  There are various causes of epiglottis pain, such as fever leading to inflammatory restriction, decreased resistance during overexertion, and hormonal secretion problems during the menstrual cycle of women.  If an ulcer has formed after visual examination, or if there are symptoms accompanying other diseases, the cause needs to be treated symptomatically. In the case of ulcers, topical medications such as ulcer powder can be used appropriately to aid recovery, while other diseases should be treated first before addressing the symptoms of palate pain.  In the case of epiglottis pain, a heat-clearing herbal tea such as honeysuckle or fat sea can be brewed appropriately to relieve the situation of fire, which can also effectively relieve the pain.  In addition to the routine use of anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce inflammation locally, prevention is better than treatment in daily life. Avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and eat more vitamin C-rich foods like tomatoes and kiwis. Keeping a good mood, avoiding fire, keeping enough sleep, effectively avoiding overexertion, paying attention to diet and life rules, and developing good living habits are better ways to prevent epiglottis pain.
