Hi I have had continuous mouth ulcers/canker sores for the last 5/6 years after having my gallbladder removals. Could there be a connection or is it just a coincidence. They can be quite large and often take at least 1/2 weeks but  by then I get a new one. Fran
Hi Thanks for the query. You are suffering from RECURRENT AUTHORS ULCER which is causing you the eruption of canker sores in mouth. It can be caused due to a number of reasons like Stress, Nutritional Deficiency [Iron, Vitamin B12 and Folic acid], hormonal changes, acid reflux, tongue trauma due to some sharp teeth or tongue biting habit, excessive intake of sour and citrus foods, side effects of medication etc. You need to consult an Oral Physician or a general dentist in this regard to get evaluated and treated. For authors ulcer you can do warm saline garglesGargles with 1:1 solution of Ben Chat Doctor. Apply numbing gel over the sore for relief from pain especially during eating. Take a multivitamin tablet for a period of 15 days. Avoid spicy, sour and acidic foods. Hope this helps. Regards
