Question:
I’m having boils on my gums. How do I get rid of them naturally using home remedies and natural treatment?
Answer:
The eruptions in the oral cavity could either be apthae (mouth ulcers) or due to gingivitis or inflammation of the gum tissue.
Mouth ulcers occur due to a host of reasons – constipation, poor diet, nutritional deficiencies, inadequate intake of water, or trauma to the mucus lining in the mouth.
