Canker sore that lasts too long?!
Question: Canker sore that lasts too long?
The problem is, I've had it for more than two weeks and it doesn't seem to be healing. And from what I read. canker sores are supposed to go away in less than that. I'm a bit worried it might be something more serious than a simple sore, and now I seem to have another one growing right above the old one.
Is it normal for canker sores to last longer than usual? And what can I do to help it heal faster?

Although I've never pierced my face, everytime that I get any kind of canker sore or ulcer in my mouth, I gargle with a capful of hydrogen peroxide several times a day. It usually goes away in a day or 2.
My G-friend insisted that I start taking this new pill out for the canker sores I was getting. Well despite their stupid name, the sh** worked, all the way around. I'm their new biggest fan. Anyway, it's called The Canker Spanker, no joke - don't get me started on their name.
A large one can take up to four weeks to heal but you need to get it treated, sounds infected to me.
Never heard of it.
