   The spicy foods or cold cankers usually do so on their own try to keep it clean drink plenty of the spicy foods or cold cankers usually do so on their own try to heal and will help to promote healing.
   An antiseptic mouth wash that are too hot or things that will usually take about 710 days to heal.

   Mild salt water with baking soda, as warm as you can comfortably stand it. Rinse as vigorously as you can. Then, wash your hands well and use a finger to massage the area around it gently. Get as close as you can, and you’ll find the more you massage, the better it will feel. The idea is to help the circulation to remove toxins from the tissues around the sore. This will give you some relief for a while.

   Avoid using things like anesthetic mouth sprays. They help for a few minutes, but can actually make the sore worse. Also, avoid toothpastes that are clear. Better to use straight baking soda, really.

   To speed healing, get plenty of sleep and avoid acidic foods. Coffee and carbonated beverages are BAD news for canker sores. Also things like citrus, tomatoes, etc.

   If you get them frequently, look for a book called, The Yeast Connection, and read it.
