How can I reduce the frequency of anguish wounds? - Edward P., Woodstock, NY

Your mouth is a barometer of your general well-being and wounds of anguish are a particularly good indicator of excessive anxiety, poor nutrition or lack of sleep.

So the first step is the reduction of the impact of these stressors on your life. You should also keep an eye on what you eat, because acid plants can be caused by acidic foods such as grapefruit and oranges, as well as chocolate and nuts, rich in arginine amino acids, which can irritate the mucosa of the mouth.
