Mouth ulcers (recurring, painful)
Recurring mouth ulcers (aphthous stomatitis) are painful, shallow sores on the inner cheeks, tongue, or gums that heal and return periodically. They can make eating and talking uncomfortable. Ayurveda treats this as a Pitta imbalance with cooling therapies and blood-purifying herbs.
