recurrent mouth ulcers - possible causes

Kitty's picture

Did you know recurrent mouth ulcers can be caused by a deficiency in vitamin b12 (due to not enough in diet or an inability to absorb it - especially if you have gut problems), iron or folate?

You can ask your GP for a blood test to check if your child is deficient.

I found a website that lists some other causes too - the link is:
