Dr. Guo Huijie
When children have oral ulcers, they may use Xigua Shuang spray according to medical advice. Xigua Shuang spray, a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine, has multiple effects including clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain, as well as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial actions. For pediatric oral ulcers, applying Xigua Shuang spray locally can effectively alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing of the ulcerated areas. Additionally, Xigua Shuang spray is also suitable for oral ulcers caused by factors such as malnutrition or vitamin deficiency, and can help supplement necessary vitamins and trace elements to some extent. When using Xigua Shuang spray, it is important to follow the doctor's instructions, maintain good oral hygiene, and avoid consuming irritating foods to ensure optimal therapeutic effect and smooth recovery from oral ulcers.
