I get canker sores pretty often, if I get one theres usually another one or two that pop up the same week somewhere else in my mouth -- I generally get them every other month... I'm 17 now I've been getting them my entire life. Does anyone else get them this often?

Canker sores are pretty common... especially in teens. It's believed that they can be caused by things like stress, poor nutrition, and food allergies. You should try switching your diet up a bit and addressing any sources of stress in your life. I've also heard that gargling salt water soothes canker sores and also helps to keep your mouth sanitary. If you're getting them that often, though, you might want to consider talking to your doctor. They can prescribe medication to relieve pain and decrease healing time.

you have got an allergic reaction to the especially spiced foodstuff yet you're saying you consume it all the time, yet your canker sores merely look each few months. There are some different rationalization why you will be able to correctly be getting them: being overtired, ingesting acidic foodstuff (to illustrate, lemons, tomatos, pineapple, lime), gluten intolerance, once you're ill, or adventure discomfort or inflammation in the mouth alongside with having a dental technique. you will be able to also have a sensitivity to a evaluate toothpaste, sodium lauryl sulfate, yet i anticipate you sweep on a daily basis and, lower back, your cankers are each few months. in step with probability certainly one of the different triggers I listed in high quality condition.
