Aspirin Cure for Canker Sores

Aspirin is best remedy for soothing canker sores. I have been suffering from a canker sore for 2 days and just got so overwhelmed with the pain that I couldn't take it anymore. I used OTC medicines, but none really helped. I found this site and tried Alum first. It hurt a lot, but helped for about 20 minutes. The pain came back, but worse. After suffering for awhile I tried Apple Cider Vinegar. That hurt a lot too, and seemed to be helping, but again the pain returned. Finally I tried making the aspirin paste, and now my sore only hurts a little bit. The aspirin is definitely the best soothing agent for me. I hope this helps convince others to try it as well.

I crushed one aspirin tablet in a shot glass, added a few drops of water and let it sit for a few minutes. I then spread the paste on the sore, which is on the roof of my mouth. I tried to keep the area dry as possible, and so bit down on a wash cloth to soak up my saliva. After 10 minutes I noticed a definite change in the amount of pain I had, and 10 more minutes gave me complete relief.

This little remedy was a miracle for me. I had been suffering from a canker sore for days and nothing worked. Not even medication. I came across this website and I tried the Aspirin paste. I cut an aspirin in half, crushed the aspirin got a q-tip and rubbed it on and left it for about 30 min. After 30 min it was instant pain relief. The next morning I felt much better and the canker sore was smaller. I truly recommend this remedy it worked Miracles for me and I have tried many different remedies and this worked the best.

Nobody I have ever met gets canker sores as bad as me. I got one in the worst spot possible, right on the side of my tounge. With every mouth movement I have pain. I broke an aspirin in half and held it on there for about 5 minutes. Pain was gone immediately. It's quite amazing. Thank you.

I have canker sore on cheek or tougue quite often, about once every 2 months. I try to avoid bread because I think this closest I can think of the relation. I tried 3 remedies that I saw here, ACV, Baking Soda and Aspirin. Aspirin is the super fast one to stop the pain and feel good right after the 1st application. What I do is split the aspirin in half and one half right at the canker. It will dissolve over time and pain is gone. I used this remedy 2 times and they both worked so I need top share with everybody. ACV & Banking Sode don't work for me.

This really did work and on the first try - I googled this today at work and as soon as I arrived home I went to get some asprin, but only had an Advil Liquid Gel. So I chose to try this method and it also worked. With only ONE liquid Gel capsule I let it dissolve into my mouth. With the saliva that accumulated in my mouth over the few minutes (3 - 5 min) I used the Advil to work as a mouth wash.... and Wa La... It worked. Thanks to the others as well. I can now feel comfortable again.

Try the asprin it works great. I have been havein canker scores since I was a little girl.I have tried every thing to stop the pain as soon as I tried the aspin it worked in mins. TRY IT !

Thanks to the person that posted the aspirin remedy for canker sores. My son had a canker sore that was killing him, so he tucked an aspirin between the sore and his lip and just let it sit there for a few minutes. The pain went away and his sore healed up!

the asprin works! its great! thank you thank you thank you!

Thank you, thank you, thank you Earth Clinic! I have been suffering for days with excruciating pain due to canker sores on my tongue. It hurt to much to eat or talk and was nearly debilitating me. I read both about the ACV and aspirin treatments, so I tried th ACV first, being such a big fan of its other benefits-- it hurt so bad I cried! And it only got worse over the next half hour, so desperately I tried the aspirin paste. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS TREATMENT! the pain started subsiding instantly and after about 15 min. I started crying again-- only this time for joy! Pain was totally gone! I was able to eat my first real bit of food in 3 days- and enjoy it! The only thing is the effect only lasted for about 2 hours, so the next day for speeds sake I just put a whole aspirin over the sore spot and let it dissolve- same wonderful effect as the paste. It totally removes pain for about 2 hours, but each time the pain comes back it's less then before, and there is obvious healing happening. I know someone said only do the treatment once a day, but I'm popping 1 aspirin every 2 hours to keep the pain at bay because I don't have time for pain. I figure it won't effect me negatively to take this much aspirin for a couple days until the sores heal. I can't thank you enough, Earth Clinic!

Be careful with the amount of aspirin you consume in one day - it also works as an antiplatelet (blood thinner); for that reason it's given to people that are having heart attacks.

I have been getting canker sores for more than 17 years. I have tried everything, today I read about making Asprin paste with couple drops of water. I used right away and It worked. Thank you, Thank you and Thank you again

This website is awsome! I get canker sores so easily and sometimes they are so painful I feel like I can't function. I didn't have any vinager so I tried the asprin thing and it worked so well. Its not nearly as painful and I only had the paste on for like 5 min. so I imagine leaving it on for 30 min. would nearly cure the sore.

Aspirin for canker sores: Works wonderfully. Just cut a pill of aspirin into two and apply directly to the sore. In just a little bit of time the sore will feel much better and will start to shrink in size. I've also heard of mixing the powder with water to make into a paste. Either way, good relief!

Letting an aspirin dissolve on a canker sore eliminates the pain and cures the canker sore immediately. Within a day, the canker sore is gone.

Any brand of aspirin will do to cure a canker sore, it must be melted in a few drops of water and made into a paste. You can dab the paste directly on the canker sore with a q-tip or the tip of your finger. Allow the paste to sit on the sore for 30 minutes. Within the 30 minutes you should feel the pain and soreness slowly fading away. It has been my experience that after the 30 minutes the canker sore is cured. But if you have one of those stubborn cankies, then use a second application of the paste after a period of 24 hours, reason being the ingredients in the aspirin can be harsh on the sensitive tissue inside our mouths.

WARNING!

I put aspirin on a canker sore and got a Chemical burn! Dentist said it's like putting acid on it. Takes a long time to heal.

Oooh! Dang, I "accidentally" fixed a recent canker sore with peroxide (Thanks Joe! ), so I can't try it on THAT but I just got a pound of pure aspirin powder to play with! So, thanks! I'm experimenting with an anti-viral disinfectant spray (aspirin and grapefruit seed extract powders) and brush-on mold repellent (not sure if the aspirin can help with the mold but I prefer stuff that's useful for lots of different things) but I'll be sure to put some aside to play with elsewhere! Thanks!

I had several canker sores that developed from being in the dental office for over 3 hours. I tried apple cider vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, dental gel and nothing worked. Then I tried aspirin and it was the only thing that gave me pain relief.

I left it in my mouth for approximately 10 minutes. I highly recommend it.

This does help immensely. I recently developed a mouth full of sores. Talk about pain. I'm still not sure what caused this because I never get them. I don't think it actually "cures" them, but it makes them feel better right away. I just let one dissolve in my mouth as close to the sore as possbile. No need to make a paste as aspirin dissolves very easily.
