In general, Xigua Shuang spray can be used to treat oral ulcers.
The main ingredients of Xigua Shuang spray include watermelon frost, Coptis (Huang Lian), Phellodendron (Huang Bai), and others, which together exert effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, reducing swelling, and relieving pain. In the treatment of oral ulcers, Xigua Shuang spray can alleviate pain through its cooling sensation, promote local blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process of the ulcerated area. When using Xigua Shuang spray for oral ulcers, the mouth should first be rinsed with warm saline to clean the area, then the spray should be directly applied onto the ulcer site, with an appropriate amount each time.
Although Xigua Shuang spray may provide some relief for mild oral ulcers, individuals experiencing long-term recurrent ulcers or ulcers accompanied by other symptoms are advised to seek timely medical consultation to rule out potential underlying conditions such as vitamin deficiencies or immune system disorders, and to receive targeted treatment according to medical guidance.
In daily life, it is recommended to consume more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin B and vitamin C, such as oranges, kiwifruit, and broccoli. Avoid picky eating habits and reduce consumption of spicy or excessively hot foods to prevent irritation of the oral mucosa.
