Angular stomatitis is a common oral disease, and women who are preparing for pregnancy may also encounter this problem. For the relief of angular cheilitis, we can start from the following aspects:
1. Maintain oral hygiene: Good oral hygiene is the basis for preventing and alleviating angular cheilitis. Regular brushing, flossing, mouthwash, etc. can effectively clean the mouth and reduce the growth of bacteria.
2. Dietary adjustment: Reasonable eating habits can help relieve angular stomatitis. Avoid spicy and acidic foods to reduce irritation to the oral mucosa. Eating more foods rich in vitamins B, C, iron and other nutrients can help repair and maintain the health of the oral mucosa.
3. Pay attention to rest and adjust your mood: Female friends who are preparing for pregnancy may experience greater stress and anxiety, which is not conducive to the relief of angular stomatitis. Therefore, proper rest and mood adjustment are very important. You can relax your body and mind through appropriate exercise, listening to music, reading, etc. to reduce the onset of angular stomatitis.
4. Avoid licking your lips: Licking your lips is a bad habit associated with angular stomatitis, which can easily lead to irritation and damage to the oral mucosa, thereby aggravating inflammation. To develop a good habit of not licking your lips, use lip balm to keep your lips moisturized and reduce irritation.
5. Avoid excessive chewing: Excessive chewing of food will cause friction and irritation to the oral mucosa, which can easily induce angular stomatitis. Therefore, chew slowly when eating and avoid over-chewing.
6. Pay attention to food temperature: avoid eating food that is too hot or too cold to avoid irritating the oral mucosa and aggravating inflammation. Proper food temperatures can help relieve symptoms of angular cheilitis.
7. Use oral care products: Oral care products such as mouthwash, oral spray, etc. can help clean the mouth and relieve angular stomatitis. Choose products that contain antibacterial ingredients and choose products that are suitable for your oral condition.
8. Correct bad habits: Some bad habits such as biting your lips and teeth can easily lead to the occurrence of angular stomatitis. Try to correct these bad habits and maintain oral health.
In summary, to effectively alleviate the symptoms of angular stomatitis, we can maintain oral hygiene, regulate diet, pay attention to rest and regulate mood, avoid licking lips, and avoid excessive chewing , pay attention to food temperature, use oral care products and correct bad habits and other measures.
