Self-healing of epiglottis ulcers usually takes about 2 weeks. During this period, you can avoid stimulation of the ulcer or apply systemic medication to promote the healing of the epiglottis ulcer.
1. Avoid stimulation of the ulcer: Some epiglottis ulcers are caused by spicy food, too hot food, tobacco and alcohol stimulation. A light diet, abstaining from smoking and alcohol, paying attention to rest and reducing the stimulation to the ulcer can promote its healing.
2. Systemic application of drugs: because of the hidden location of the epiglottis, local medication can not be effective, through the systemic application of glucocorticoids and other drugs to make the symptoms relieved.
If the epiglottis ulcer is serious and does not heal, or if other symptoms appear, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, after clarifying the cause of the disease, to carry out professional treatment.
