[pyonir]

rise with 50/50 Hydrogen Peroxide and warm water. Just don't swallow it.

 

[Legendary]

Valtrex?

 

[Shockwave]

I've heard if you put alum powder on it it helps. But goddamn alum powder is some bitter stuff.

Or, just stop insulting it, and it won't be sore anymore.

Kanka ! It's benzocaine so it numbs it, and it acts like a liquid band-aid for your mouth. Works wonders...

 

[777php]

zilactin

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

A red-hot fire poker.

 

[Ranger X]

Burn it off.

Does sugar help with canker sores or is it making more acid?

Try 50/50 H2O2/H2O as suggested above.

pick up L-lycine from GNC. it's an enzyme suppliment. supposidly if you are low on it, it takes longer for canker sores to heal.

Grass juice & agar.

Just kidding Mesona chinensis is a minty plant & is boiled untill it is jelled up (it is simmilar to agar/fruitos). In raw juice form it is bitter and sugar is added to it to make a brown jello drink.

It works well, I don't know how scientifically, but how chinese people explain it is that there are inbalances of heat in your body, and when you eat too many fried stuff/dry stuff, you warm, and you are prone to getting cuts and sores. Grass jelly drink and ginseng tea is supposed to "cool" you down, to balance you out, and your sores will automatically heal.
Don't really understand it, but it works.

I don't believe that stuff, and hence, it doesn't affect me.

It works, but it tastes weird. I just deal with them now.

acyclovir, gancyclovir. basically any *cyclovir drug

[moshquerade]

a canker sore, aka an apthous uler, is not caused by the herpes virus like a cold sore.

there are over the counter ointments or prescription ones to try on it, but all in all time is about the only thing that will heal them.
