About 20% of the population suffers from common recurrent oral ulcers, which are round or oval in shape and have clear boundaries. 80% of patients have ulcers with a diameter of less than 5 mm, which take 7 to 14 days to heal. Larger ulcers are rare and require weeks or months to heal, leaving scars. In addition, there are also classified herpetic ulcers, which require 1 month to heal.
According to Japan's "Medical Tribune" (June 7, 2001), the cause of oral ulcers is unknown, and the causes of some patients are related to stress, trauma, smoking cessation, menstruation, and food allergies. There is no special examination method, and diagnosis can only rely on typical symptoms and disease history. However, differential diagnosis must not be ignored for this reason. In addition to iron, folic acid, and VitB12 deficiencies, immune disorders such as chronic inflammatory bowel disease, HIV infection, and neutropenia should also be considered. In addition, systemic diseases and skin diseases such as leukemia, lupus erythematosus, and Behcet's disease (see picture) should also be excluded. Anticancer and antithyroid drugs may also produce mouth sores.
Single chronic ulcer should be suspected of oral cancer. Oral ulcers may also appear as accompanying symptoms in children with periodic fever, pharyngitis, hand, foot and mouth disease and infectious mononucleosis.
Professor Scully pointed out that oral ulcers can be treated with chlorhexidine or oral hydrocortisone sugar-coated tablets, and triamcinolone ointment applied 4 times a day. If symptoms do not improve, systemic corticosteroids should be considered.
