Nymph asked:


I have had a canker sore for about a week and it’s really painful. What can I do to make it go away? Also, how to prevent future canker sores, as I get them about 5 or 6 times a year.

   warm salt water is a good idea. also stay away from hard candy or acidic drinks like orange juice or lemonade. if i have a lot of these things i get canker sores. when theyre really hurting i put orajel on them. it helps a lot
