Fruits commonly used to treat oral ulcers include apples, pears, bananas, apricots, watermelons, and kiwifruits. These fruits are rich in vitamins and minerals and possess properties that help clear heat and reduce internal fire. Specifically, apples are high in vitamin C and A, which have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects that promote healing of ulcerated areas. Pears contain abundant juice and a large amount of vitamin B, helping to accelerate recovery and prevent worsening of the condition. Bananas are rich in vitamin B, which supports the repair of oral mucosa. Apricots are high in beta-carotene and vitamin B, aiding wound healing. Watermelon has a high water content and possesses heat-clearing, fire-purging, and diuretic properties, which can alleviate symptoms of oral ulcers. Kiwifruit is rich in various vitamins, meeting the body's nutritional needs and improving symptoms of oral ulcers. When consuming these fruits, it is advisable to choose the chewing side according to the location of the ulcer to avoid irritating the affected area, and to control the intake appropriately to achieve optimal therapeutic results.
