How do you help a cankersore feel better?

Answer 1

One way to help a cankersore feel better for at least 8 hours is:

1) Take Sprite or Dr. Pepper and pour it in a cup

2) Pour in some water and sprinkle in a little salt

3) Stir mixture until well blended

4) Gargle mixture for 30 seconds and then spit out

This should work for up to 8 hours and make it feel better. Another way to make a cankersore feel better is put toothpaste on it. It may sting for a couple seconds (so sorry!), but it will numb it for a couple minutes, then make the pain go down. The last way you can make a cankersore feel better is put a teeny amount of salt on your pinky, then press it on your cankersore. This WILL sting for a second or two, but it's worth it. It makes it stop hurting for about 6 hours. I hope this helps! I also have other information on cankersores. Check it out!
