If a baby has oral ulcers, he will show varying degrees of refusal to eat, irritability, and even fever, which will ultimately directly affect the child's physical health. Therefore, parents should be very clear about the causes and treatments of their baby's oral ulcers. When ulcers occur, you must take good care of both inside and outside. Applying necessary oral ulcer treatment products externally and eating foods rich in vitamin B internally can have a good effect.

1. Causes and treatments of oral ulcers in children

The incidence of oral ulcers is relatively high among children, mostly infants and young children aged 1 to 6 years old. If a child's oral ulcer is caused by trauma such as abrasions, it is generally easy to cure and will heal in about three or four days. Generally speaking, a lack of vitamin B can easily cause various oral inflammations: angular cheilitis, cheilitis and glossitis, which can easily cause oral ulcers. At this time, the child needs to take multivitamin B12 and riboflavin (as directed by the doctor), and at the same time adjust the diet and eat more riboflavin-rich milk, liver, spinach, carrots, cabbage, etc. If a child has weak resistance, a weak constitution, or excessive fire in the spleen and stomach, oral ulcers are likely to occur. During the period of oral ulcers in babies, the following methods are recommended:

1. Egg yolk: Egg yolk is rich in B vitamins. Mix egg yolk with rice soup and feed it to your baby.

2. Formula milk powder: rich in riboflavin;

3. Vitamin C: Crush a 100 mg vitamin C tablet and sprinkle it on the oral ulcer twice a day.

4. Watermelon juice: Give your baby watermelon juice several times a day.

2. How to supplement vitamin B deficiency in infants and young children? The following are foods rich in vitamin B:

1. Foods rich in vitamin B1: wheat germ, pork leg, soybeans, peanuts, tenderloin ham, black rice, chicken liver, germ rice, etc.

2. Foods rich in vitamin B2: lamprey, beef liver, chicken liver, shiitake mushrooms, wheat germ, eggs, cheese, etc.

3. Foods containing vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin, pantothenic acid and folic acid: liver, meat, milk, yeast, fish, beans, egg yolks, nuts, spinach, cheese, etc.

In addition to necessary cleaning and care for oral ulcers after a baby has a fever, you can also choose foods or medicines rich in vitamin B for follow-up care. Generally speaking, oral ulcers are caused by a lack of vitamin B. Therefore, eating more foods and medicines rich in vitamin B can help children prevent the recurrence of oral ulcers.
