I've got this shitty ulcer on my tongue...

You know that thing under your tongue that goes down to your lower gums inside your teeth that Gene Simmons supposedly had removed so he would have his signature long tongue?
Well, I've got an ulcer on the bottom of that on the very front.
I have drawn a diagram to indicate where it is.


Augh this sucks

Nah, I'll just brush my teeth and floss and shit to keep my mouth clean (more than usual), since I heard that's supposed to help.

Ouch. Sorry man.

Oh yeah, that too.
I also did that when this one retainer I wore fucked up my bottom lip something fierce and now everything's hunky dory.  So I'll do that this time as well.

Cauterize it with a soldering iron. That's what I would do.


Oh wait this isn't the medical forum, good advice time.


I've actually had multiples of these before.

Hot food makes it last longer, so does hardcore toothpaste or mouthwash. Eating papayas and drinking whole milk helps alot. Spicy, salty, or sour foods will make it angry, so don't eat lots of Thai like I did before I found out. If it starts bleeding smother the bastard in butter. It's counterintuitive, but eat often and regularly with lots of fatty dairy, rice, and things of a mild PH. This is the time I learned to make sushi, and the time I kicked my coffee habit for whole milk.

Isn't ulcer more meant for the stomach?
I would call it a sore.

In general, if it's a sore on a mucous membrane, you call it an ulcer.

Might be called a canker sore or something, I never really bothered to find out if I was using the right terminology.

Ah, I see, thank you for clarifying that.

yeh I get a lot of ulcers in my mouth. I just keep my mouth clean. I find that if I hold mouthwash in my mouth (antiseptic shit) until the ulcer goes numb, it'll stay that way for a while. i do that before meals so i can eat without it hurting. salt water helps, also I dunno if you've heard of it, but there's this stuff called TCP. it stinks like shit but if you dilute a little of it and swirl it around your mouth for five minutes the ulcer usually goes the next day. makes your mouth taste like grandma though

That thing is broken in my mouth, as in Gene Simmons'. It makes me able to touch my nose with my tongue.
