What Are Mouth Ulcers?

Mouth ulcers are small, painful sores that appear inside the mouth — on the cheeks, lips, tongue, or gums.

They are usually not serious, but frequent or long-lasting ulcers may need professional evaluation.

Common Causes of Mouth Ulcers

Mouth ulcers can occur due to multiple reasons:

• Stress and fatigue – One of the most common triggers for recurring ulcers.

• Nutritional deficiencies – Lack of Vitamin B12, iron, or folic acid.

• Injury or irritation – Accidental biting, sharp tooth edges, or ill-fitting dental appliances.

• Spicy or acidic foods – Can trigger or worsen ulcers.

• Hormonal changes – Often seen in some individuals.

• Medical conditions – In rare cases, ulcers may be linked to systemic health issues.
