Who gets em? I get em a lot and I have one right now that is probably the worst I've ever gotten. Anyone know any ways to make them heal faster?

I heard rinsing your moth with salt water was good but I don't know if it's true. it sure hurts the canker sore a lot but I'm not sure if it's actually helping.

Buy Bonjela.

Also, I've never had them so I don't really know how well it'd work but I heard it's pri good.

Just buy some canker sore medicine and apply it to the affected area before you go to bed every night and it should be gone in about a week or so.

Rinsing with salt water does help a lot. Hurts a lot, but helps a lot. You can also get medicine that helps it clear up faster.

Also, drink more orange juice. Vitamin C deficiency is the number one cause of canker sores, if I remember correctly.

NC; get at me.
Bite em off
Ive never had one so I cant give advice, but when I saw this recommendation ^

Please don't. I don't think anything good could come of that. Orajel would def help with the soreness, it always helps me if i bite my lip or something, why not a canker sore?

I get them a lot too. I rinse my mouth with either warm salt water or hydrogen peroxide. Both seem to work pretty well.
