That's an unusual place for one. If it's not gone in a week or getting better by then, visit your PCP.

if you mean hydrogen peroxide, that's a terrible idea.... has the ability to kill healthy, newly formed cells that your body is trying to heal the infected area with..... NEVER continually treat wounds with peroxide.... initially to cleanse the wound, sure, but after that toss that in the back the medicine cabinet...

Some say you shouldn't use peroxide at all. Others say you shouldn't use it after ether the 48 or 72 hour mark. All who have any level of non-anecdotal evidence agree that peroxide used after about 72 hours is more likely harmful than beneficial. Your mom, grandpa, etc may have done/still do it without any perceivable problems, but it's out of favor in the medical community. If you still have pain, try a chloroseptic spray when you eat or when you reach unbearable levels of pain. Otherwise, ride it out. Maybe take ibuprofen.

I used to get them a lot. I tried everything and the best I found was to numb it and ride it out.

KankA works for me most of the time.

I've had what you are talking about on the back of my throat. Went to the doctor. That's probably not a regular canker sore. Mine was caused by a sore throat. Doctor gave me some antibiotics and it was gone in a day or two. It looked and felt just like a canker sore on my guns though. Hurt like hell.
