Mouth ulcers?

[Arimeh]

Does anyone know what you can take during pregnancy for a mouth ulcer? I have one on the end of my tongue, and its starting to really bug me.. (been there for about 2 weeks and I've just been ignoring it!!)

I know it sorta says that I'm lacking in a vitamin as well, but for the life of me can't remember which one it is... I've been a bit slack lately at taking my vitamins, and I've been really sick and run down (yes yes, probably because of the vitamins... )

So does anyone know what I can take/do/help to get rid of it and stop another one coming?

Ta!!

Vitamin C- go for it! If not - vegemite popped on it - will sting and taste terrible but it does help!

Good luck- its strange forone to last so long!

teething gel is always good on mouth ulcers (if its painful) that and mouthwash..

[Arimeh]

Dust - I use mouthwash twice a day and its not helping.. Plus didn't know if I could use DS's SM33 or not during pregnancy??

Cindy - thanks. I'll try the vegemite... (echhhhh... )

I take colloidal minerals cause i usually get heaps of really bad ulcers that last a week or two weeks. Since taking the collodial minerals each day i stopped getting them. When i stopped taking the minerals they came back

I am pretty sure they are safe in pregnancy, will double check for sure today at work. You should be able to get them at a health food shop, otherwise i sell them from work and can post them if needed.
