Ulcers can be cancerous. You should see a doctor immediately, and I am pretty sure there are no "quick remedies" for things like cancer.

this is sme information i gave u for treating ur mouth ulser. though before u try this u should go to the doctor imideitly before u couse other or more reaction. also during this time dont eat or drink anything with acid it well burn ur lips u would not want that.
Treatment of mouth ulcers may include soothing mouthwashes (such as salt and warm water or compound thymol glycerin mouthwash) or antiseptic mouthwashes such as chlorhexidine mouthwash or povidone iodine mouthwash. Pain can be relieved by using local anaesthetics such as benzydamine hydrochloride, choline salicylate gel or lignocaine. Local anaesthetics like this cause temporary numbness at the site where they are applied. These local anaesthetics may be used in the form of a mouthwash, a spray, a jelly or an ointment. (Local anaesthetics need to be used with care: if the back of the tongue or the throat is made numb this can result in choking when swallowing food or drink. Local anaesthetics are also not suitable for young children with mouth ulcers).

Carmellose gelatin paste may be applied to mouth ulcers; it forms a protective layer over the ulcer.

Paracetamol is useful to relieve pain, especially for young children with viral infections causing mouth ulcers. Such young children need to be encouraged to drink to avoid dehydration.

Carbenoxolone gel or mouthwash can be used.

Many of the remedies above may be bought from a pharmacy without a prescription.

Treatment of aphthous ulcers may, on medical advice, include corticosteroids applied as a paste or used as a mouthwash. Occasionally it may be necessary to take corticosteroid tablets (so that they are absorbed into the bloodstream) to treat some severe types of mouth ulcer. For large aphthous ulcers, corticosteroids may sometimes be injected beneath the ulcer. Before using corticosteroids of any type it is important to be sure that the ulcers are not caused by a viral infection.

Aciclovir, a type of antiviral medication may sometimes be helpful for mouth ulcers caused by the herpes simplex virus. Aciclovir cream may be used for treatment of cold sores. It should be applied as early as possible, preferably when the tingling sensation is present but the cold sore has not yet appeared.

A mouthwash containing tetracycline (a type of antibiotic) is sometimes used for treatment of mouth ulcers. A medication called cimetidine, originally used to treat stomach ulcers, has also been used in the treatment of aphthous mouth ulcers. Most mouth ulcers are not due to serious illness. Occasionally they can be associated with poor immunity or other medical conditions.

Ulcers that so not heal should always be checked by a doctor.

there is a over the counter tube of medicine that you can get at wal-mart. called Orabase.
it is a thick like substance that you put directly on the canker sore(ulcer) it numbs the sore as well as healing it..
I use it constantly when i have a mouth ulcer and it works well,
it doesn't taste that good, but it will work guaranteed. and it is also pretty cheap about $5.00 for the tube maybe little less.

Colgate makes a great mouthwash named Peroxyl available at Wal Mart and drug stores. B vitamin deficiencies may be a factor; take a high potency multi- vitamin-multi-mineral supplement. DGL (deglycerinated licorice), Myrrh, and Golden seal may help. You can find these at health food and supplement stores or go to swansonvitamins.com .

Ooh, I hate those, don't drink Orange Juice!lol The only thing I've heard and was always told to do is gargle warm salt water for a couple min. Do it every so often, I don't know how it helps exactly, but it does.
