A thick, good coat of Kaopectate will soothe the sore and eliminate pizza, juices and acidic foods so it will heal. Heals on it's own in about 10 days. Also a good ibuprofen dose will also help.

Apply honey to the affected area as many times as possible. When you apply honey, the affected area will start letting out some kind of liquid (which will start mixing with saliva), keeping spitting this out.

I had a mouth sore for the last 4 days and i started applying honey yesterday and now I am feeling much much better. Hope this helps many others.

ok so honestly this works because I've scanned all over the Internet to find find some pain relief for canker sores or mouth ulcers ,

this only works for 30mins to an hour so your going to have to bring the bottle with you , and plus Im broke so trust me this is such an easy remedy

just buy for like $5 at cvs , Walgreens or any store like that and. buy sore throat spray , mine is cheery but any flavor will do, mines legit called sore throat spray phenol/ oral anesthetic cherry flavor , and spray it right on the sore , like 3 sprays or so swish around and spit out ,

it's cheap easy and although I have no clue if it heals them but it nums them completely it's like there not there , plus it nums sore throats

My mouth sores were really out of control. I suffer from this horrible ailment since I was 4. I acquired some combination of Skin Herpes and Impetigo. It became so violent and infectious condition tha it spread around my nose cheeks, etc. I have tried EVERYTHING. Creams just makes it worse. The best advise given by a naturalist to me was WALNUT EXTRACT. Applied directly to the affected area. It seals and dries the skin and you can see the results immediately. The liquid can be applied to minor cuts and scrapes or pimples. It helps to heal plus I've had very minor breakouts. The minute I feel any discomfort I apply it before anything flares out.

Rinse mouth in ENO or a similar product to eliminate pain temporarily, yet very nicely. Whether this is a 'cure' or whether it accelerates healing, I do not know.
