      I got this big nasty ulcer at the back of my throat, making innocuous actions like swallowing saliva feel like eternal torture. The really deadly combination is that the more conscious I am of the pain, the more saliva I have.


      It's keeping me awake at night, and its deep down my throat so I can't easily apply any cream at it. Is there any remedy or shall I just have to outlive this stubborn ulcer 😢

      I always have ulcers on my mouth or throats or cut, seen few doctors, realised one medicine can solve this problem, You can purchase Oracort E, Tarco (small tube of 5 gram - cost less than $10) which can help you to solve it. This cream can be purchased at any parmacy (without doctor's prescrip). When you have apply the cream 1st time, you will not like as it is quite concentrated, apply before you sleep, however the next day it can rinse away by clear water before you brush your teeth. Appy for a few days, it will recover .

      If you have bad sore throat , like something struck in the throat, you can also buy Difflam (has green colour. lemon, etc). This is a fast relief of sore throats. With combination of these two items, sure get relieve your throats. Drink plenty of water , almost every half an hour to relieve the heatiness. All can be purchased at pharmacy, not offshelf. Never use the normal orange lozenges ( doesnt work , take too long to recover).

      If you doesnt, pls consult the doctor for further advice. Maybe antibotics may require due to throat infection.

        Can try gurgling antiseptic mouthwash to relieve the pain. Then see a western doctor for antibotics or a Chinese physician. I recommend physician YuHong (HP 91859608) at Beauty World. He might still b around at the clinic at this hour.

        Thanks for the recommendation, Jen. BW is actually quite near where I'm staying. I will check it out one of these days.

            Try watermelon powder spray... Is it strep throat???

            Would you believe that my colleague actually gave me one of this thing in the office. I was sceptical at first. But now that you mention it too, perhaps I should be more open minded and try on Mon. Thanks.

            Hey, maybe you're that colleague of mine. Ok I'm no going to probe further, keke.

                Really grateful for the detailed advice. But the irritating thing is that my ulcer is stuck at the back of my throat. Unless can open my mouth wide like an alligator, I don't think I can reach it. If it's visible, then half the battle would already have been won.

                But I'll take note of your advice should I suffer from sore throat in future. Thanks again :celebrate:

                  That was my experience, just to share it.

                  If you are really painful, see doctor immediately ?

                    I've seen already, but all I got was some gargle & antibotics which was less than effective, to be frank.

                      Try the Difflam , it is very effective. (For sucking on the month).

                        I have mouth ulcers quite often, whenever I'm weak or don't have enough sleep. Sometimes on the side, sometimes underneath the tongue (that's the most painful one for me 😢 ). I tried those mouth gels/cream, gargled with salt water before, but nothing beats the watermelon powder. Sometimes when I'm lucky, I just apply it once before bed, the ulcer is not painful anymore the next day šŸ˜„ .


                        It might be a bit bitter if you spray deep into your throat but it's worth a try. :celebrate:
