- Rinse with Salt Water: Mix a teaspoon of salt in warm water and rinse your mouth 2-3 times daily to reduce swelling and prevent infection.
- Avoid Irritants: Stay away from spicy, acidic, or crunchy foods that might aggravate the wound.
- Apply Ice: Use an ice pack or suck on ice chips to numb pain and reduce inflammation.
- Use Medicated Gels: Over-the-counter oral gels can provide pain relief and protect the wound while it heals.
- Maintain Oral Hygiene: Keep your mouth clean by brushing teeth gently and avoiding the injured area.
These simple steps will help you heal quickly and get back to eating comfortably.
