Abraison/cut of skin inside cheek . around it has a bit of blood because i keep picking/biting it. what home remedies should i do?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
It will heal up: This will heal up on its own if you are able to train yourself to stop picking at it. You could try holding a piece of sugar free gum in that side of your mouth to remind yourself to leave it alone.

Stop biting it: The most important thing to do in order to start the healing process is to stop traumatizing the area. Stop biting it and give it time to heal. It should heal within 5-7 days. Keeping the area clean with warm salt water rinses 3-4 times daily will help. Avoiding spicy and acidic foods will help it feel better while it heals.

Cheek biting trauma: Nighttime grinding or clenching of the teeth can lead to this condition. See your dentist for evaluation and night guard fabrication.
