I'm really worried and wondering if you could suggest something that works more quickly and provides a permanent solution.

I've been getting a lot of skin warts on my face, hands, and other parts of my body, and now my wife and kids are getting them too. Could this be contagious from me? What are some good home remedies to try, and if it gets worse, would surgery be an option?

I'm really struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for the past three months. I've tried seeing a few different doctors, and they've prescribed a bunch of meds like Becosules, Oflox 200, Glenora gel, Lerobaet 500, Oraways gel, and Zincovit tablets. I've attached an image, but nothing seems to be working, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try for some relief?
