I’m hoping someone can offer some advice. My son has has ulcers since he was 6months ish, he is now 10, and is literally never without one or two and on worst occasions several. He has had blood tests taken, I’m guessing for anaemia which were negative, he is underweight which I think is partially due to the fact that eating is so painful for him. I have tried the toothpaste that is meant to be better, with no improvement, he uses a mouth wash to try to help. He takes vitamin D, C and iron supplements to help with immunity, but nothing is working. When it’s bad, I’ve given him ibuprofen to relieve the swelling and he’s used Bonjela, which as many have said doesn’t touch it. We were also given the paste cream by a doctor once which he found just slipped off and didn’t help. Doctors have not been very helpful and I get the impression from them that they see it as ‘only ulcers’. I found this website after desperately searching the internet after he has been crying in pain. I know how sore they are as I have had them but nothing like his. I’d be grateful for any advice that may help him. |
