All About Mouth Ulcer

                       
                             Mouth ulcers are painful and sometimes embarrassing. Adults between the age of 25 to 35 suffer from this condition. The pain is caused by the nerves just below the surface of the lining of the mouth becoming exposed. They often seem to start by themselves as a small bubble or blister, which then become an open and ulcerated pit or crevasse. Alternatively, they can be started by trauma to the lining of the mouth.

               Mouth ulcers can also be triggered by a number of factors, such as  emotional pain or stress, fatigue, physical injury to the mouth( often by biting the cheek or from dental work), and dietary deficiencies (lack of Vitamin B12, iron and folic acid).
