I'm sorry for the tmi. But these things appeared on my tongue 3 days ago, I can't eat, talk, move my tongue at all because its so painful. I don't know what to do, I tried salt water, orajel. Should I go to the ER?... I haven't eaten in 3 days...

Question

Answer

I would go to your doctor, not the ER.

Answer

My grandma used to get these all the time! They made her so miserable. She takes lysine now (can buy it in the vitamin section at Walmart) and it dries them right up. :)

Answer

Thank you guys I feel a little relieved! But just a little irritated because I have an interview this weekend and I need to be able to talk, ugh 😩 I hope it feels better enough so I can atleast eat. Any home remedies I can do? I hear baking soda helps, is that true??

Answer

It looks like a canker sore. I get them all the time. They last about a week, you can put something called Zilactin B on it, and it'll protect the sore and make it numb so it's easier to heal. It's nothing to worry about, just annoying and painful while it's there.

Answer

Those are canker sores and yes they suck real bad lol tylonel is very helpful and there's medicines you can put on it (it'll sting real bad at first) keep your mouth clean by brushing two to three times a day and gurgle with warm salt water two to three times a day. Canker sores are the worst :( I currently have one too lol they take a week to stop hurting and another week to heal completely.

Answer

They look just like mouth ulcers. It will be uncomfortable but swill your mouth with salt water 2-3 times a day they should clear up no problem.

Usually they are caused by stress or a virus.
