How can I soothe this?!


Question:

How can I soothe this?

I've got like a cold sore or something on the bottom of my gum, where my left cheek and teeth meet. When I eat, it hurts really bad. How can I soothe it or get rid of it? It's not white and you can't really see it.


Answers:

Holding a cough drop (like a Halls) on it in your mouth till it feels dry seems to help.

Also, it's really painful, but cold sores/canker sores seem to go away faster if you brush them with your toothbrush. Ouch, but it seems to help. Stay away from orange juice or any vinegary or acidic foods until it's gone.

Good luck.
