I've cut myself on my stomach with a compass and now it's been about 5 or 6 days, but the pain just keeps getting worse. I don't want to tell anyone 'cause I'm the one who did it. Is there anything I can do to make the pain less intense, and do you know how long it'll take for the scars to go away?

I'm genuinely concerned about the heat in my body and how it's affecting my health. I've been getting ulcers in my mouth or on my tongue almost every month. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm starting to wonder what's causing them. Is the heat in my body connected to these frequent ulcers? How can I reduce this heat or prevent them from happening so often? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
To decrease body heat, try: staying hydrated, wearing light clothing, taking cool showers or baths, practicing relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing, and avoiding spicy or heavy foods; regarding ulcers, the main reasons include: stress, hormonal changes, vitamin deficiencies (B12, iron), acidic or spicy foods, and underlying conditions like gastrointestinal issues or autoimmune disorders; to prevent monthly ulcers, consider keeping a food diary to track triggers, practicing good oral hygiene, and consulting your doctor or dentist for personalized advice.
