I'm dealing with a mouth ulcer and picked up Dologel CT ointment from the chemist to use on it. I'm a bit worried though, since it's meant for oral use, and I'm wondering if swallowing a bit by accident could be harmful. Can you help clear this up for me?

View allI've noticed that right after I brush my teeth and clean my tongue, there are spots of blood on my tongue that disappear after I rinse my mouth. I've also experienced some slight swelling on the sides. There's no pain involved, but it's definitely concerning. What could be causing this? Could it be something I should worry about?
Could be due to minor trauma from brushing too hard or using a hard-bristled toothbrush. The slight swelling on the sides could be due to irritation. To help with this issue, you can try using a softer toothbrush and being gentler while brushing your tongue. You can also use a mouthwash with an antibacterial agent to help reduce any inflammation. If the issue persists, you can try using an oral gel containing benzocaine to help with any discomfort.

I got a tooth extracted yesterday, and then I fainted a few hours later. Should I be worried about that? Any idea why that might have happened?
The red skin, bump, and pus around your nose piercing are likely signs of an infection or irritation. Given your upcoming wedding, it's essential to address this issue promptly. Here's a step-by-step plan to help your piercing heal faster: *Immediate Actions* 1. *Stop using antibiotics*: Since you've already used antibiotics without seeing improvement, it's best to consult a doctor for further guidance. 2. *Clean the piercing*: Gently clean the piercing with saline solution (14 teaspoon of sea salt in 8 ounces of warm water) 2-3 times a day. 3. *Avoid tight clothing*: Keep the area around your nose piercing free from tight clothing, which can irritate the piercing. *Promote Healing* 1. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with coconut or olive oil and apply it to the affected area using a cotton swab. 2. *Aloe vera gel*: Apply aloe vera gel to the affected area to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 3. *Vitamin E oil*: Massage a few drops of vitamin E oil into the affected area to promote collagen production and healing. *Medical Consultation* 1. *Consult a doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your doctor or a dermatologist to assess the piercing and provide personalized guidance. 2. *Get a piercing aftercare product*: Your doctor may recommend a specific aftercare product to help your piercing heal faster. *Wedding Day Preparations* 1. *Temporary removal*: If the piercing is still not healed by your wedding day, consider temporarily removing the jewelry to avoid further irritation. 2. *Makeup coverage*: If the piercing is still visible, consider using makeup to cover the area.
