Hello Friends, can some one please mention what could be possible disadvantages and risk assessment for RAU treatment options. As in Recurrent Apthous Ulcers you would correct etiological factors, and do palliative measures like Topical steroids, clorhexidine mouthwash and Diflam mouthwash . I am not sure what could be the disadvantage and risk with this treatment. Any help would be highly appreciated. thank you.

Dear Siva, Many thanks for your efforts. I appreciate it. But my question is not about treatment options for RAU. I know about that but i am concerned about how to put it according to new guidelines where you have to mention about advantages, disadvantages, and risk assessement of each treatment. Thank you again. From: siva ranjani <siva2828@...> " " < > Cc: "siva2828@..." <siva2828@...> Sent: Monday, 20 February 2012, 18:26 Subject: Re: doubt regarding ulcer treatment plan.
