Mouth ulcers :/

[mayflowers22]

Ow, when do these things go away? Good thing I have an appointment with my dentist tomorrow. Can I take Tylenol for this?

I do not take pain well

Gargle with warm salt water.

Dr. Sloths says yes, you can take Tylenol. I've never had mouth ulcers, but I think it's worth a shot to see if it helps.

GL at the doc. Hope you get some relief soon.



ETA: I'm stupid and just realized this is the same thing as canker sores. I've totally had those before and second the warm salt water rinse.

I second the rinsing with warm salt water.

peppermint extract! It burns then numbs those things.

I've used Orajel before, and there's a generic version that is only a couple of bucks that I hear is just as good.
