A. Mouth ulcers, especially near the lips, can be uncomfortable for children. Here are some home remedies to help alleviate the discomfort: 1. Rinse with saltwater: Mix a teaspoon of salt in a cup of warm water and have your daughter rinse her mouth several times a day. This can help reduce inflammation and promote healing. 2. Apply honey: Dab a small amount of honey directly onto the ulcers. Honey has antimicrobial properties and can help soothe the affected area. 3. Coconut oil: Applying a small amount of coconut oil to the ulcers can help reduce inflammation and provide some relief. 4. Avoid spicy and acidic foods: These can irritate the ulcers and make them more painful. Stick to bland, soft foods that are easy to eat. As for medication, you can try over-the-counter topical treatments like benzocaine or lidocaine gels to numb the area and provide temporary relief. However, be sure to use them according to the product instructions and consult with a pediatrician before giving any medication to your daughter, especially if she's very young. If the ulcers persist or worsen, it's best to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment.
