Canker Sores
I have this canker sore in my mouth right now that is driving me nuts. Its on my lower lip, and its vertically situated in line with the tip of my lower teeth. Does that make any sense at all? Maybe if you re-read it a couple times it'll help.
Anyway, as a result, it keeps getting poked and it won't heal. Not only that, but mundane, everyday things hurt. Like laughing. Laughing is painful. I have to eat solely out of the left side of my mouth. I basically have to skip that area of my teeth when I brush, because my (electric) toothbrush violently vibrates against it when I'm over there.
I've had some bad canker sores in my day, but this is the mother of them all. I think I'm gonna get some medicine or something.
Ow.

Re: Canker Sores
I had a few sores last month & my wife asked me to put on used tea-bags..I thought i was a ridiculous idea but she was right. It made a huge difference. She is the queen of home remedies.Kyle wrote:I have this canker sore in my mouth right now that is driving me nuts.

I don't know. It really does seem like a great idea.

I think the tea bag thing (tee hee hee): http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewto ... =4&t=23358
actually probably works. When I got my wisdom teeth out they told me to use tea bags.

Re: Canker Sores
There's a nice product called (IIRC) CankAid that works pretty darn well. Clears it up in a day or two.
