How to relieve the pain from mouth ulcers caused by Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?


I am in alot of pain with this and would appreciate if anyone has any advice on how to relieve the pain. I've tried chloraseptic spray, but it makes it worse. This is not a typical sore throat.
My kids gave me this. They had it last week, but they didn't get the mouth ulcers. I have been to the doctor and been diagnosed, but its a virus, so there isn't much he (the doc) can give me. He did prescribe a mouthwash called magic mouthwash but it does nothing...sigh..

Hope you feel better soon.  (+ info)

Has anyone ever tried derma wound cream to treat diabetic foot ulcers?


I know go with your doctor.....done it...but need to maintain wound clean...give me some pointers or creams
----------

You know this may seem a strange thing to use on a foot or leg ulcer- but it works- progesterone cream. My husband has bad circulation from a damage vein in his leg, plus diabetes so he has had multiple ulcers- he went from dr, to dr and never found any prescription cream that worked. I am going through pre-menopause, and use progesterone cream. I was reading up about it on line , and it said it was safe for foot ulcers in diabetics. I thought this was kind of funny, but we tried it- and do you know something it closed the ulcer quickly before it got infected- this has happened a few times so I know it works- at least for my hubby. Good luck, give it a try- you can by it in any health food store without a prescription.  (+ info)

What is the difference between ulcer and acid reflux?


I have looked up the symptoms of both ulcer and acid reflux...however they seem quite similar. So what is the difference?
----------

Acid in your stomach can eat through the stomach, which is a gastric ulcer.

Acid in your stomach can escape into your esophagus, which is acid reflux. The acid can damage the esophagus, causing an esophageal ulceration. The two are very similar, and the treatments are almost the same.

One difference: dairy products contain a compound (caesin) that can relax the gastric sphyncter, which is the valve on top of the stomach that lets swallowed food in but keeps acid from getting out. When this valve relaxes, you get more reflux. Because dairy is slightly basic, it will neutralize your stomach acid a bit, which can help ulcers. Of course, an antacid will neutralize the stomach acid a lot more.  (+ info)
