Mouth ulcers help please

[p.penn]

I seem to have developed some rather painful mouth ulcers this week. Other than bought stuff like b*njela - is there anything else I can use to help? They are very sore.

[saint-spoon]

I use the b*njela stuff

[Steve the Gas]

Here's my cure and it works............. just painful for a few seconds.

Wet your finger tip, dip in salt, touch ulcer and keep it there 'til the soreness goes, then it will disappear.
100% works

[Lillia]

Hydrogen peroxide. Gargle with it and they will start healing right away...use about 3-4 times a day after you brush. Honestly, it is the best thing to use. I know A$DA sells it, but you want as full strength as you can get. Ask the pharmacist. Also salt-water helps ...a bit of salt mixed in warm water.
I hope you feel better soon

Didn't know Steve was a massokist (thought that might be a forbidden word).
I was just about to say avoid salt and vinegar crisps at all cost Helen .
Why does it say on preparations to put in the mouth 'apply to a dry area' don't know about you but the inside of my mouth doesn't have a dry area .
Sorry Helen I dont know of any remedies at all so can only sympathise and wish they go away pdq - a little numbing refreshment tonight may alleviate the pain a bit

[LittleBrownFrog]

I do the salt thing too - only thing that works

[perchy]

Salt and then a rinstead pastille

they are horrid arn't they, are you run down?

You really could do with a break

[Annie]

Oh Helen , it looks like you need to be brave then. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUCH

[Steve the Gas]

Wonder if she is dribbling now with a gob full of salt??

Told yer

[p.penn]

are you run down?

Maybe, but I think there are one or two people who would like to though.

[perchy]

are you run down?

Maybe, but I think there are one or two people who would like to though.

No kisses this time, I forgot they are catching and I don't want them I am going away for a few days soon, hope Richard doesn't mind, did tell him 6 months ago
If he does will have to take it as unpaid

[p.penn]

Mouth ulcers aren't catching. Are they?

Oooh, going away eh Perchy? Did you give in your forms signed in triplicate, plus the £50 absence fee?

Where you going? Anywhere nice?

I've tried loads of remedies for mouth ulcers and the one that works for me is a used, cold tea bag. Pop it in your mouth, over the ulcer for as long as you can. It's not very elegant but at least it isn't painful. Apparently it is the tannic acid that cures the ulcer.

[p.penn]

Thanks Meredith - I have already put some salt on and will see how that does. Thanks Steve.

Oddly, it didn't sting at all.

My recomended cure all is chew a raw Garlic clove .
You may not be very popular for a while but I bet it'll work!
