Iglu Shield Non-Medicated Mouth Ulcer Treatment. Effective Barrier to Protect ulcers, Relieving Pain and Soreness, 10g

I was hospitalised with supraglottitus, never heard of it either, several throat infection causing it to close among other symptoms. My mouth was overrun with ulcers, inside my lips, on my gums tongue and upper throat. After the ulcers started to recede I was released on antibiotics. But at home ulcers increased and some were really big, eating and speaking near impossible. I've been putting this on a collection of ulcers where my front jaw/gums meets my upper lip, right in the joint between the two and on a huge one on my lower lip, about 15mm long. Also on the underside of my tongue, about 15mm also but that's impossible to measure. Also on 2 on the top of my mouth, around 5mm each. The rest are too far back to comfortably deal with Anyway this stuff is a revelation. My case is extreme I know but this changes everything. It forms a coating, it's awkward to get in tight spots with a finger so use something else, flatter, fork or teaspoon handle if you've flat got flat ones. It forms a strange coating over the ulcer as soon as your spit touches it and it's incredibly good. I can drink a cup of tea, eat a banana and not be in agony from the covered ulcers. It lasts a long time, several hours on the lips. The under tongue one was trickier and that lasts long enough to get through a brew and a small meal, the flex down there is extreme after all. I 100% recommend this to everyone and I sincerely wish my doctors had told me about it. It is odd feeling but so much better then the pain which it immediately relieves simply by cutting out the friction and influx of solid and liquids as you drink and eat. Cheap as chips at this price, no proper taste or, no bad smell, easy to use after a bit of practice too. If possible dry the area you're applying it, that hurts I know, once you've smeared this on let the spit roll over it, don't rub it with a spit covered tongue or finger, let the liquid flow over it and it'll make a seal as a rubbery soft coating.

Cursed with an incredibly annoying chocolate allergy. I have been dealing with some pretty severe ulcers for decades. I get ulcers fairly regularly even without chocolate, but it’s the chocolate ulcers which burn and sting and affect my day to day life. I generally get them on my tongue, which affects my speech, causes drooling, and makes me wince in pain either from (frequent) contact with teeth or food being eaten. The ulcer in the attached photo was brought on by accidentally licking the inside of a strawberry cornetto cone whilst enjoying the ice cream on top (the inside of the cone has a thin layer of chocolate). Literally the next morning I wake up with that familiar burning sensation and realise I have run out of Iglu. Apparently they don’t sell it in the shops local to me anymore for some reason, and as usual it’s Amazon to the rescue. Iglu is a barrier cream. It’s not medicated. Essentially you are covering your ulcer with a layer of a waxy substance which protects the ulcer from contact from drinks or foods being consumed. We all know the struggle of enjoying a meal with an ulcer, this ulcer treatment doesn’t numb unpleasant sensations, it prevents them from happening in the first place. Application is as simple as adding a small blob to a fingertip, pushing it onto the ulcer (coating it in the process) and then using your own saliva to set the cream. Once it has set, you can eat or drink with almost no awareness of the ulcer, even spicy foods. Obviously eating causes abrasion, so it may need re-applying afterwards. But it generally easily lasts long enough to enjoy a full meal before needing to be re-applied. Take this from someone who has lived with ulcers for longer than I can remember, this works, nothing else comes close

I had an awful ulcer that was right where my teeth lay against my gums so it was really struggling to heal. Had never heard of this before but was really pleased with its effectiveness as it is like a paste so really helped my pain relief while my ulcer healed. Stays on really well I found and great value for money.

I am prone to mouth ulcers which can be very painful. I have tried a number of different products but find Igloo to be the most effective. If I put a dab of Igloo on the ulcer, the pain relief is immediate. Unfortunately, as with other similar products, the product does not remain in place for very long - understandable given it is in your mouth! However, I do like Igloo and I always keep a pack at home, ready for the next ulcer.

Fantastic stuff. I used to suffer quite horrifically with mouth ulcers due to the fact I had crooked teeth which would irritate my mouth, sometimes having 5 at a time which would make it almost impossible to eat. Luckily I don’t have that issue anymore, but I still keep a tube handy in case one pops up. This stuff is a godsend, very easy to use, works quickly, and much more helpful than other products out there. Use a small amount, half a pea size is usually more than enough. Cover the ulcer completely, and then allow your saliva to run over it, which then forms a shell like cover, allowing you to eat without pain. It also seems to help them heal faster, as they’re no longer being irritated and are protected from further irritation. Relief is immediate, and the taste is minimal, however, even if it was disgusting, I’d use it simply because it makes a very unpleasant experience much easier to tolerate. Cannot recommend enough if you suffer from mouth ulcers.

I've been suffering with really bad ulcers and spots on my tongue for a while now. Perimenopause, lacking in certain vitamins or stress, who knows? They're just really painful and wake me up during the night and make me wince when I talk. Recieved this early Sunday evening and the ulcers I had were gone by the Monday evening. It feels weird when you first use this but once your saliva mixes with it, it's barely noticeable. Like blister patches for your mouth that actually work, unlike that stuff that tastes nice but slips straight of where it's supposed to be!

Very good product .Ulcers take their time to heal but it makes healing faster and painless.Its really sticky so apply it with wet finger tip.

Works on, quite uncomfortable on lip and the constant taste and smell of peppermint is annoying. Ok to put on. Very sticky and once on stays on. Lasts quite awhile. Wouldn't buy again unless they did an fragrance free one
