:(

sadly they can be a side effect to quitting hun

the only thing i can suggest is swill your mouth out with some warm salted water and get some ulcer gel also a multi vitamin may help as they are caused too by a deficency but cant remember which one :confused: :rolleyes: ive not had enough caffine intake so far this morning to get my brain working

Aww it's nasty isn't it?

Like Carol says use salt water and try Cordosyl too 'cos it helped me even though it tastes evil!!

Ooh and you might be a bit anaemic, I was and it gave me ulcers

Make sure you eat plenty of dark green veg and meat if you like it too :)

Should help!!

Don't know if my anaemia was caused by smoking or not, but it got worse when I smoked heavier?

Know quitting can giv you ulcers, your mouth gets used to having hot smoke in it 20-odd times a day and now it's going back to normal :)

I'm going through gum problems at the minute and know its to do with my quit. The best thing is Corsodyl mouthwash but only use it for a month then switch to listerine. My dentist advised me to do this when I used it previously because Corsodyl stains your teeth if you overuse it.

Hope your mouth feels better soon (and that I feel better as well)

My mouth tasted horrible and nothing I ate tasted right. The doc gave me some meds. Said it was because smoking killed bacteria.

Not what you're looking for?
