Mouth ulcers are not necessarily fire When it comes to mouth ulcers, most people are treated with “fire”, drinking herbal tea and eating anti-inflammatory drugs, this approach is not one-sided. Usually said that the cause of oral ulcers is not clear, and there are many factors related to the disease, psychological and social factors, genetic factors, infection factors, nutritional deficiencies, etc. can trigger ulcers, these cases can not solve the problem of drinking herbal tea. Diet too fine will also mouth ulcers urban people eat too fine, it turns out also with the occurrence of mouth ulcers are not unrelated. Take rice, the epidermis contains vitamin B2, trace elements of zinc, but the rice processor in order to make the rice look white, eat good taste, the rice surface layer removed, resulting in the loss of the above nutrients, eat more of this rice lack of these nutrients, easy mouth ulcers. Therefore, doctors remind people to eat more vegetables and fruits and supplement vitamin B2 and zinc gluconate in general. Recurrent ulcers are related to immunity For the common recurrent mouth ulcers, the attacks are mostly taken care of by the general public with topical drugs, as they do not target the cause, even if they are temporarily effective, they will recur later. Recurrent mouth ulcers have a very close relationship with immunity. Some patients show immune deficiency, while others show autoimmune disorder. In addition, anemia, partial diet, indigestion, diarrhea, fever, excessive fatigue, work stress, and changes in the menstrual cycle are also predisposing factors. As one or more factors are active, alternating and overlapping, there is a decrease in muscle immunity and immune dysfunction, which also causes frequent attacks of mouth ulcers. Mouth ulcers or tumor-related to the summer many people will be plagued by mouth ulcers, for this common disease, many people are it and fire, heat associated with, do not know that the onset of mouth ulcers for many reasons, may also be the performance of malignant tumors. The reporter learned yesterday from the Zhongshan Second Hospital Oral Medical Center, the center has received three consecutive patients since the beginning of summer are oral ulcers for a long time, and finally diagnosed as cancer. Summer irritability ulcers are more frequent 35-year-old Xiao Yun has suffered from mouth ulcers for many years, and this summer is even more painful. The weather is hot, work is busy, eating is not good and sleeping is not good, but the mouth ulcers come out to make trouble, pain can not eat, easily cured, after a few days the new ulcers come out again. Zhongshan Second Hospital Oral Medical Center Director Pan Chao Bin, oral ulcers are also divided into types, the most common is recurrent oral ulcers, the onset of mucosal necrosis in the oral cavity, the formation of ulcers, the larger the ulceration point more painful, but self-limiting, can be in about 7 to 10 days to heal naturally. Ulcers can appear in any part of the mucous membrane, usually occurring in the buccal mucosa, tongue and lips where there is frequent movement, so the pain is very obvious during an attack, and coupled with constant recurrence, it can have a great impact on the work and life of the patient. Mouth ulcers can occur all year round, but they are particularly common in patients in the summer. From the perspective of Chinese medicine, emotions, sleep, and poor diet are all factors in the prevalence of mouth ulcers. In the summer heat, people are easily irritable and agitated, which leads to poor appetite, and sleep is also easily disturbed, either by inability to sleep or easy awakening. These physical disorders can easily trigger mouth ulcers, so every summer mouth ulcers will be concentrated. The earliest warning sign was a mouth ulcer. 3 weeks ago, Akang had an ulcer in his mouth and his family said it was a fire, so he went to see a Chinese medicine doctor, but it didn’t heal after several visits. The doctor reminded him to do further examination, and once he did, he found early tongue cancer. Experts remind that many people have the illusion that mouth ulcers are an inflammatory lesion and it doesn’t matter whether they go to the hospital or not, they will naturally get better with some anti-inflammatory drugs. But among the many mouth ulcers, there are a few that do not belong to recurrent mouth ulcers, including tuberculous ulcers, syphilitic ulcers, etc., and they do not heal on their own. Even some oral ulcers are early manifestations of certain malignant tumors such as tongue cancer, gum cancer, and buccal mucosa cancer at the beginning. If these ulcers are ignored or treated as inflammation with their own “experience”, they are bound to delay the disease and accelerate the spread, with unimaginable consequences. In fact, it is easy to distinguish between recurrent ulcers and tumor-induced oral ulcers. The former is round in shape, soft to the touch, recurrent, and usually heals in a week or so. The latter has an irregular shape and hard lumps can be felt around and at the base of the ulcer. The pain is not obvious in the early stage, but the development is very rapid and cannot be cured for a long time. In addition, the long-lasting ulcers in the mouth may become cancerous over time because they are often stimulated by chewing and talking. That is, those parts in contact with teeth, due to the patient’s unwillingness to remove the remaining broken teeth, or improperly made dentures, the sharp edges are constantly irritated and scrape the mucosa to produce ulcers. If the stimulus is not removed, the ulcer will not heal but will only get worse. This kind of ulcer that does not heal over time is a kind of precancerous lesion, which is very easy to become cancerous.
