Mouth Ulcers

[Stuart*]

I find I get them when I'm burning the candle at both ends for a few days and am knackered.

You are indeed a martyr to your academic pursuits, Sput.

How long has the word 'Plymouth' been in the swear filter then?

Or have you just given in and had your name changed to StuartWanker?

I am not qualified to give medial advice.

You're wrong, cdd. There are several types of medial ligament; none however are in the mouth and are susceptible to ulcers.

There is one, however, in the eye.

Interestingly (well, we'll see) when we were out in the rainforest this year, the Malarone (malaria medication) notes stated that mouth ulcers are sometimes a side-effect, so it was a bit of a double-whammy of 12-hour days in the blistering heat AND chemicals that let them happen. My Bonjela got a hell of a work-out for that month.

I've always found just holding a mouthful* of any powerful mouthwash for thirty seconds twice a day, seems to kill my ulcers in a couple of days.

*Holding it IN MY MOUTH, before I get any randomly pedantic comments about where else I might be holding it

Well, until you raised it, it wasn't a point for me and now it is seeing as "holding a mouthful of any powerful mouthwash" doesn't really imply anything but having it in your mouth.

You brought this on yourself!
