Canker Sore Causes

No one knows what causes canker sores. The vast majority of people who develop canker sores do not have another problem as the cause.

* The disease is suspected to result from a reaction of the immune system.

* Additional factors may include the following:

o Bacterial infections

o Hormonal disorders

o Stress

o Trauma

o Heredity

o Food allergies or sensitivities (acidic foods such as pineapple)

o Deficiencies of iron, folic acid, or vitamin B12

* Some studies have suggested an association with Helicobacter pylori, the same bacteria that cause peptic ulcers.

* Recurrent canker sores have been associated with inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. In these cases, the development of canker sores may signal a flare-up of the bowel disease.

* Celiac, or abdominal, sprue, a disease of the intestines caused by sensitivity to gluten, causes malabsorption and is associated with development of canker sores. Gluten refers to a group of proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye.

* Behçet disease is a condition characterized by canker sores, genital sores that resemble canker sores, and inflammation of the eye.

* Infection with the AIDS virus also has been associated with canker sores.

* It is a common misconception that canker sores are a form of herpes infection. This is not the case.

Canker Sore Treatment

Self-Care at Home

* Try rinsing your mouth with a solution of 1/2-teaspoon salt dissolved in 8 ounces of water.

* Another mixture that may be helpful consists of 1-2 tablespoons of Maalox mixed with one-half tablespoon of liquid diphenhydramine (Benadryl).

* A number of medications are available over-the-counter, for example, calamine (Calamox) lotion.

* Liquids or ointments with a numbing ingredient such as benzocaine (Anbesol, Orabase, Tanac) help relieve the discomfort of canker sores.

and prevention:

Prevention

* Avoid anything that could cause trauma—even minor trauma—to the mouth, such as hard toothbrushes and rough foods.

* Do not talk while chewing.

* Have any irregular dental surfaces repaired.

* Hormonal factors can sometimes trigger an outbreak during the premenstrual phase. Oral contraceptives may be helpful in this regard.

* If you have a deficiency of iron, folic acid, or vitamin B12, make sure you are taking the appropriate supplements.

i usually go for old school style of curing this.

Secret formula? tawas. I go for powder. Believe me, it stings like hell, but for me its effective.

To get rid of that, keep your mouth clean at all times. brushing ang mouth wash spells a lot.
