Managing Mouth Blisters: Treatment & Relief
Here are some steps you can take to help get rid of a big mouth blister:
1. Avoid irritating the blister. This means not picking at it or touching it with your tongue.
2. Keep the area clean by rinsing your mouth with warm salt water several times a day.
3. Apply a cold compress to the area for 20 minutes at a time, several times a day. This can help reduce pain and swelling.
4. Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) can also help relieve pain.
5. Avoid spicy, acidic, or salty foods, as these can irritate the blister and make it worse.
6. Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated.
7. If the blister is particularly large or painful, you may want to see a doctor or dentist. They may prescribe a topical ointment or medication to help treat the blister and reduce discomfort.
