Canker Sores?!

Canker Sores?

I get canker sores ALLLL THE TIME. They hurt, ive tried all of that numbing stuff that you can buy (kanka, orabase, the little patches you can put over it, EVERYTHING). Is anyone a doctor here because i think i might have to call my doctor to get prescribed something, and it hurts to talk. Ive stopped eating salt, so citrus, everything i can think of that can cause it, but yet i still get them....

I have often had canker sores. Really big ones, that make you not want to eat, or talk. They can be so bad. I have noticed a couple of things regarding these "mouth ulcers". First of all, you have to cut down on the sugar you are eating. I have noticed that if I am eating more sugary things, I get more canker sores. Once you have one, make sure to brush your teeth more than you normally would, in order to cut down the bacteria in your mouth. Then, you can rinse your mouth with mild salt water several times a day until it heals, or use a little hydrogen peroxide on a Q-tip or cotton ball (it tastes awful to gargle with). Canker sores are sometimes considered "thrush", which is a fungal infection, or sometimes considered part of a candida infection, and you can look that up online. While you have them, of course, everything hurts. I would try cutting out the extra sugar and see if they occur less frequently.
