Recurrent oral ulcers: These are localized ulcers that periodically recur on the oral mucosa, also known as aphthous stomatitis. It is the most common disease of the mucosa, often occurring on the lips, cheeks, and edges of the tongue. It can affect people of all ages, but is more common in women, and can occur in any season. Although ulcers have a self-limiting nature (they can heal on their own in about 7 to 10 days), some may not heal for up to half a month, causing great inconvenience to the patient's life. The cause is not yet clear, but factors related to this disease include genetic factors, infection factors, nutritional deficiencies, decreased activity of superoxide dismutase, etc.
Treatment: In clinical practice, the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine often yields better results than using either Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine alone.
