I'm trying to figure out how to use Kenacort 0.1% triamcinolone oromucosal gel for mouth or gum ulcers. Could you guide me on the steps? Should I just apply the gel and wait, or do I need to spit it out afterward? And what happens if I accidentally swallow some?

To apply Kenacort 0.1% Triamcinolone Oromucosal Gel for gum ulcers, you should wash your hands thoroughly before applying the gel. Take a small amount of gel on your clean fingertip. Gently apply the gel directly onto the affected gum ulcer. Avoid rubbing the gel vigorously, just spread it evenly over the ulcer. Allow the gel to remain in place and avoid rinsing your mouth or eatingdrinking for at least 30 minutes after application. Do not spit out the gel after application, let it stay on the ulcer to provide relief. If you accidentally swallow a small amount of the gel, it is generally safe. However, try to avoid swallowing it as much as possible to ensure maximum effectiveness for the ulcer. Remember to use Kenacort 0.1% Triamcinolone Oromucosal Gel as directed by your healthcare provider for the recommended duration.
