Some basics: For now your main goal is fluids to keep her hydrated. If she can pee every 8 hrs you can avoid needing an IV. A mixture of half/half diphenhydramine (benedryl) and Milk of magnesia can be used to numb the sores, 1 tsp swish/swallow or painted on with an earbud will help, given every 6 hrs. Chilled applesauce, ice chips or milk can help.Avoid citrus juices &amp; dry food until she feels better.

Accepted Answer

Herpes: I recommend that you consult a specialist in infectious diseases for accurate diagnosis and treatment of your mouth ulcers and epididymitis both of which are probably sexually transmitted diseases in your case and warrant appropriate testing and prompt treatment.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Yes: Unclear why you developed that set of symptoms in reaction to Influenza vaccine - would need to know more..Live virus vs inactivated, parenteral vs nasal, “high dose” vs “standard”, when did symptoms develop compared to vaccine administration.

Re: coronavirus vaccine.  Definitely yes.  With sarcoidosis (regardless of activity) you are at increased risk of severe disease

Question 9

can there be any home remedies to cure mouth ulcers fast?

Accepted Answer

It takes time: Most mouth ulcers will heal on their own in 7-14 days. You can alternately rinse with salt water and 3% hydrogen peroxide (diluted 1:1 with water). There are also a number of otc medications at the local pharmacy or supermarket. They probably would decrease the healing time but will make it feel better. If it doesn&#x27;t or they last more than 2 weeks see your dentist.

Question 10

can you tell me if there are any home remedies to cure mouth ulcers fast?

Accepted Answer

Miracle mouthwash : There are several variations of this mouthwash that seems to relieve painful aphthous ulcers.  It is not however a cure but does seem to relieve the pain.  Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and the anti diarrhea medication kaeopektate are mixed 50/50 and you swish it around your mouth and then spit the excess out.  Do not swallow.
