I've been getting these recurring ulcers in my mouth, and I'm not sure who I should be seeing about it. The ulcers are mostly on the inside of my lower lip and cheeks. Should I be reaching out to a physician, or is an ENT specialist the right person to help me? What do you recommend?

I've hurt the inside of my mouth while brushing my teeth and it's been really painful for about three days now. It's started affecting my teeth because of an ulcer. What can I do to help with the pain? I'm really struggling with this.

You may have developed a mouth ulcer due to the injury. To help with the pain and promote healing, you can use a topical oral gel containing Choline Salicylate and Cetalkonium Chloride. Apply the gel directly to the ulcer 3-4 times a day after meals and at bedtime. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg tablets as needed for pain relief. Make sure to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the ulcer.

I've been noticing these small lumps on my body for about 10 years now. Is there a specific type of doctor I should consult for this? I'm really curious about what kind of treatment options might be available. Any advice would be really appreciated.

The small lumps on your body could be lipomas, which are usually harmless fatty tumors under the skin. You can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment. In some cases, if the lipomas are causing symptoms or cosmetic concerns, they can be removed surgically. However, if the lumps are due to other causes, the treatment may vary. It is best to consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
