Does anyone get a sore mouth from eating their IBS trigger foods?Last week I ate some crisps (plain ones), which triggered a d-attack, also my tongue was v.sore after, red and bumpy round the edges like I'd been chewing it. Surely I can't be intolerant to potatoes?The same happens with excess sugar, my mouth with feel raw and painful for days. I also get frequent mouth ulcers.

I have trouble with canker sores and have for many years. Did your crisps have salt on them? I think that salt can trigger IBS and canker sores.

I have problems with mouth ulcers too, and they take forever to heal, the doctor has just given me a steroid paste to spead over them, but it gunged up mouth, so im back using bonjelar (spl?) and rinse with salt water 3 times a day.

My son has always had a problem with canker sores. (up to 4-5 at a time) The dr is having him take Prilosec to reduce excess acids. It is helping a bit. Note: he doesn't have IBS

For mouth ulcers/canker sores you could try:1.) L-Lysine (found at a health food store and sometimes at a drug store). When you have them take 1000mg capsules (two 500s) for a few days, then go down to 500mg a day for a maintainance dose. If you get them again (or start to feel them) up the dose back to 1000 for a few days. This helps a lot for cold sores, and can help for canker sores and the cracking some get in the sides of their lips.2.)There is a product at many drug stores, I think it is called Amosan (or something like that - if I find it is different or someone else finds please post). You gargle with it to help mouth ulcers.3.)Already mentioned - a mix of hydrogen peroxide and water as a gargle, then spit out.If you have a sore throat and/or white patches on your tongue or in your mouth which you can't seem to get rid of I think you should go see a doctor.
