F*** YOU CANKER SORES!! I'm in so much pain! I keep getting canker sores in my mouth! They last for a few weeks, go…

Sterisol!!!!!

That's what it's called! Just came to me.

Ask your pharmacist for an over the counter mouth wash - I forget what it's called but the liquid is red I believe it starts with an "S". You rinse with it several times a day and it clears them up. GL

My mom told me to get Lysine (I also get bad fever blisters). I put it on the grocery list but hubby didn't pick it up for me! :-( I can't complain when he forgets stuff though because he always goes for me! :-) Looks like I will be heading to the store tomorrow.

becca go and get some lysine!!!

MY son gets them from anything orange flavored... So I had to cut him off all orange products

also for shingles, which i got because my immune system was so low due to yeating soo many acidic foods. be aware that your kanker sores can be aggrivated by the foods you eat and youd be, suprosed at what you should avoid during an outbreak. google food high in lysine and dodge the ones that dont for a while. i cant eat peanut butter or anything peanuts now because i developed an alergy yo it. sucks to be me lol almond butter will do. gl!

lysine is the only way to go, my doc lets me take a 500mg with my regular prenatals. it is just an amino acid that takes your body from being in an acidic mode to more, alkaline. look it up, but it will work wonder.

there is a natural supplement called Lysine. Works wonders for me. Can be used for cold sores as well.

kanka works pretty good. I used to eat a lot of spicy food and lemon and citrus foods and thats what caused mine. one cut down a lot and I haven't gotten any. also I would use salt and baking soda and it burns like a betch but it helps. just not as fast as kanka. and if you use kanka make sure you let it dry and if you can help it don't let it get wet at all.

I get them, I also have ulcerative colitis. I don't know if that's why or just a coincidence though

I get them a lot cause of my Lupus. My mouth will be full of them. the warm salt water does help and I use the orajel to numb them. Hope they go away for you!

Thanks!

whiskey works wonderful for them swish it on ur mouth and spit it out

You can also rinse your mouth out with mylanta

Thanks ladies!! I am going to try every one of these things!

I always get them when I have my period. It's been a nice 9 months without those painful bastards!

There also genetic !

I get them a lot too and Colgate peroxyl mouth wash helps. It's for mouth sores, helps them to heal faster & helps with the pain.

I have 3 right now... I get them when I don't sleep & get stressed... 3 1/2 month old ebf baby & yea they've been pretty constant :-/

try cutting back on sodium and carry around mouth wash with you. every time after you eat rinse out your mouth. and drink a lot of water. I use to get them all the time.

Are you stressed? I used to get them real bad in the back of my throat where I had my tonsils removed.. I haven't for a long time now though. It could also be because of hormones or stress that's what my Dr said when I went in for my canker sores. I thought I had herpes hahahha nope just canker sores.

@nichole - I do have stomach issues. They cleared up when I was pregnant but they are back now full force! No more fried anything, greasy foods, I have to watch my dairy intake, no more tomato products. :-(

I read that they can be a symptom of Crohns disease, but I've never been tested.

^^ what's alum?

I have heard if you put a little alum on them they go awah

Oh and I'm not pregnant, so it's not that.
