Medicine for treating children's oral ulcers

Patient's question:

My daughter developed mouth ulcers yesterday, and she can't even eat properly or brush her teeth. Sometimes when she accidentally touches them with her tongue, she says it hurts. Actually, this isn't the first time she's had a recurrence. Each time it goes away on its own, but it comes back after a while. This constant back-and-forth is too hard on the child. I'd like to ask the experts what medicine is used to treat mouth ulcers in children.

Doctor's answer:

If the child experiences oral ulcers again, you can appropriately use some (Xigua Shuang) or fire-clearing medications to alleviate the symptoms. Consider whether it is due to recent neglect of oral hygiene or vitamin deficiency, among other factors. It is necessary to identify the cause of the recurrence and treat it accordingly. During this period, pay more attention to cleaning the teeth and mouth, and try to maintain a light diet, avoiding foods that are considered "heating" ().
