I now have a painful canker sore - it's on my gum at the side of a molar. I so hate the feeling of having just one canker sore.
I've once read that on most cases, the occurrence of a canker sore coincides with a period of pressure or stress in life. I can only agree to that because that's true on almost all of my canker sore attacks! Everytime I seem to get disappointed or pressured, I tend to develop these annoying white wounds in my mouth!
Canker sore drops don't work well for me so I just wait for it to heel all by itself.
Do you have canker sore problems too?
How do you deal with it?

I usually get canker sores, whenever i sleep lesser than 7 hours for 3 consecutive nights. Although i drink 1000 mg of ascorbic acid everyday, it wouldn't help much ,if i hadn't had enough number of sleep.
So, i would file for an undertime at th office on the fourth day and i sleep until i get the 8 hours of sleep. In addition, i rub my canker soars with what we call here in the Philippines as "tawas". In a matter of two days, they would be healed.

I used to get them dang things all of the time, it seemed. I would usually get one every time I was to have a picture taken. There it would be on my lip or the corner of my mouth. I used to put makeup on mine to try to conceal it.

Well I experience canker sores too. And my remedy is putting "alum powder" just on the affected part. It may hurt just a bit then it numbs. I don't know if it is recommended by the doctor but is actually works for me. My canker sores heals faster this way.
