Aphthous Stomatitis
Aphthous stomatitis are small ulcers in the mouth, also known as canker sores. These shallow ulcerations are most commonly located between the gums and lower lip or along the sides or base of the tongue. They are usually seen during severe flare-ups of IBD and generally subside as the bowel disease comes under control. Medicinal mouthwashes may be helpful as treatment, but because aphthous ulcerations may also be caused by nutritional deficiencies, these problems need to be addressed as well.
On behalf of learning, and use as teaching tools for those of us who need to
know about our disease, I have tried to supply you with as much information as
I could find on all of the drugs, treatments and disorders associated with
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. I have tried to blend all facts supported by research
and also from personal experiences of other IBD sufferers into one readable webpage, and any and all information presented here is not entirely
from one source. Most information contained within these pages is found in the public domain.
