I belong to a kidney disease forum and there are many questions posted by patients. One of the questions is “Can Kidney Failure cause constant sores in the mouth?” I think many kidney disease patients also suffer from mouth sores, right? Well, do you know its cause and treatment?

1. The causes of sores in the mouth

Kidney failure can definitely cause mouth sores. When kidneys are damaged, they cannot filter wastes and toxins as effectively as before. Toxins build up in your body can present in many different ways. Some common effects on mouth include bad breath, dry mouth, metallic taste, insidious bleeding from the mouth.

Besides, iron deficiency can also induce sores in the mouth. Since most kidney patients have some sort of iron deficiency. This may be your sores coming from.

2. How to cope with mouth sores?

Oil pulling

Many kidney failure patients use extra virgin cold presented organic coconut oil. It helps any sores in the mouth and also helps cleanse the blood. Coconut oil is anti bacterial, anti fungal and anti viral. Use a tablespoon of oil and swish it around inside your mouth for 15 to 20 minutes. Be sure not to swallow any of it because it will be full of bacteria etc.

Improve kidney function

The root cause of mouth sores is toxin accumulation caused by declined kidney function. Thus, we need to improve kidney function. Only in this way can sores in the mouth be treated fundamentally. I recommend you take Chinese herbs or Chinese medicine treatments which can repair damaged kidneys and improve renal function without any side effects.
