Deb,

I always use alum. Just dab a bit on the canker sore, and let it sit for a

bit before rinsing out.

what I use is Myrrh EO (actually I use the CO2 extraction, not the steam

distilled, but either works well) and dab it NEAT on the canker

sore. tremendous improvement over nite.

stuff tastes VERY bitter, but it works better than anything I've ever tried

for ANY sort of sore or irritation inside the mouth... irritated gums as

well as cankers.

Radha,

I did some digging concerning canker sores (aphthous stomatitis).

Sounds like the cause is not always clearcut. Here are some

possibilities (from Murray and Pizzorno, Encyclopedia of Natural

Medicine): food sensitivities (especially milk and gluten

sensitivity), stress, or nutrient deficiency. I suspect that herpes

simplex type 1 (the one that produces cold sores or fever blisters)

is

a possibility. Beyond that (according to Tierney et al, Current

Diagnosis and Treatment, 1997), canker sores can be secondary to

erythema multiforme or drug allergies, pemphigus, pemphigoid, bullous

lichen planus, Behcet's disease, or inflammatory bowel disease.

Here are some things you might try:

L-lysine to discourage herpes viruses.

Elimination of wheat, rye, oats and barley to check gluten

intolerance.

A blood test for gluten antibodies (alpha-1-gliadin antibody assay).

Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL), either as a mouthwash or as

tablets, to support the rebuilding of your mucosa.

Vitamin C at 1,000 mg per day

A high-potency multiple-vitamin-mineral supplement.

As always, please note that I am not licensed to diagnose or treat

disease, and anything I suggest should be viewed simply as

information

to be considered together with your doctor.

Hi Radha, I've got a horribly painful sore on my gum along the inside of my

mouth on the right side. I've been wondering if it's related to the

ImmunePro, or if its just a coincidence. I've never had this before.

Go to mothernature.com and use their library. I turned up all sorts of

things there on canker sores when I was looking for a friend.

I don' know if anyone has mentioned this since I haven't read all the

postings I received on canker sores. I always used to have problems with

canker sores, they used to grow big and hurt so much and used to last at

least 2 weeks, sometimes more.

On the ER4YT-a list I was told that canker sores are caused by a deficiency

of L-Lysine. So whenever I feel a canker sore coming up, I immediately take

2 or 3 tablets of L-Lysine every morning on an empty stomach for a few days

and the canker sore disappears.

Hope this helps.

Have you tried L-lysine for your canker sores? My husband

gets them almost monthly and he takes about 500 mg. 3 times

a day and first it reduces the pain and then they disappear.

Do a search on this. LIZ

Monolaurin, an OTC supplement and ingredient in coconut oil, supposedly envelops the virus which causes cold sores, inactivating them. We have had success with it this winter.

It's a food supplement, check the vitamin section at the store.

Or a health food store. We get ours at Pharmor they have good

Hi there. I read that individual aminoacids has many healing applications

like l-lysine have. Others are glutamine, triptophan, l-metionine,

fenilalanine, etc. Does it not suggest that it would be appropriate to make

a cure with a protein diet?. Greetings.

I can only tell you what works in our family. At the immediate onset of a

canker sore, cold, flu or any other virus, ( as soon as you feel the

symptoms) we take 3 echinacea (400mg) three times a day...for a total of 9

per day for two days. Believe it or not, canker sores do not escalate to

full blown sores....only sub-surface and are gone within a couple of days.

We haven't had any serious colds, flu or viruses for years. We do not take

it everyday....only when we feel the need to boost the old immune system. My

daughter suffered often with canker sores....only to get rid of one and then

get another. This is the only thing that works for her. But the secret is

to do it as soon as you get the sensation that the sore is coming. (before

there are any outward symptoms).

Hope this helps your friend.

Try Lemon Balm ( off.) proven against Herpes, the virus that causes

cold sores, or tincture of Myrrh.

If you don't have these you can try Myrrh essential oil diluted in a carrier

oil, apply directly to the canker sore, but I don't think that is as

effective.

Hope that helps

Canker sores or cold sores is caused by herpes virus- simplex, NOT the same

as genital herpes. Before you have an outbreak, you get numbness and

tingling in the area and a sore appears. For the mild case use the over the

counter stuff. Campho-phenique is pretty good, use per direction. If it

persist, see a doctor. For more severe cases, acyclovir may be presbribed.

Rose . L-lysine is a miracle machine when it comes to canker soars or

fever blisters. When I feel one coming on I take a mega dose of L-lysine

caplets and if I still get one it is short lived. I used to get them every

month or so now I take one L-lysine cap. a day and am almost free of these

unsightly friends on my lip. There is also a L-lysine lip balm you can use.

Great stuff. HTH. Ricky in Texas

What I use for me and mine (mind you I'm not making any recommendations for

others) is Myrrh Essential Oil, a drop on the fingertip and dabbed

directly on the sore. They normally heal up overnite. That's what we use

for any 'in the mouth' sore... sore gums, canker sores, etc.

but...you said on the lip... it's my understanding those aren't cankers,

but cold sores.

and what we use for THEM is lip balm with a drop of melissa essential oil

added to it... only one or two drops per ounce of the lip balm base.

According to Advanced Aromatherapy by Kurt Schnaubelt, tea tree and

litsea cubeba are both very effective against herpes/fever blisters.

He recommends the following blend applied neat: 1 part geranium, 1

part melissa OR litsea cubeba, 1 part lavender, and 10 parts tea

tree.

Roxanne,

Have you ever tried this yourself? My kids and I get those nasty canker

sores from time to time too. I use essential oils for practically

everything so I decided to try this one time. Wow - did it burn! I

have to say that I would not recommend it to anyone. Maybe blended in a

carrier would be okay, but not neat. Though these e/o's are effective

against the herpes simplex virus, it is way too painful for me.

Just had to share that.........

,

I haven't used that remedy because I don't get cold sores. I use

lavender and tea tree neat for other things such as acne and insect

bites, but I don't know about using geranium or litsea undiluted. I

thought blending them with the other oils might dilute them enough,

but maybe cold sores or canker sores are too sensitive.

My friend used tea tree neat on a cold sore and didn't find it

painful, though he wasn't crazy about the scent. I made him some lip

balm with a bit of tea tree to use as a preventative, and he hasn't

had any outbreaks since he started using it. I guess it's the tea

tree that does it, as he used Carmex regularly before and still got

cold sores if he spent much time out in the sun or wind.

Howdy y'all -

Just a point of information - canker sores, aphthous ulcerations of

the lining of the mouth,

http://www.animated-

teeth.com/canker_sores/t3_canker_sore_remedies.htm

and cold sores, herpes simplex 1 eruptions,

http://www.skinsite.com/info_herpes_simplex.htm

are two different things. I have found that goldenseal powder helps

with the canker sores, which I occasionally get from eating too many

high-acid foods (tomatoes, oranges, etc)- you apply the powder, dry,

to the sore, and it sticks to it, and seems to provide some relief

from the discomfort and drying action to the ulcer.
