Dear All, as I only started chemo yesterday I thankfully am not having any mouth ulcers yet but I would love some suggestions of ones to maintain oral hygiene and ones for mouth ulcers. Many thanks xxx
Hi, I found even the mildest of mouth washes felt super strong and spicy so I could not tolerate it but I did wash with a salt water mix and that seemed to keep the mouth ulcers at bay. Best wishes
