Have read with interest the articles on ACV and decided to try it. 3 days later and I have a mouth full of canker sores. Having good success healing them with alum, the pickling spice. No pain w/ application,but what did I do wrong? I'd like to continue with ACV as it has so many health benefits but can't live with mouth sores. Now what?

I don't think I agree with the ACV remedy. I tried this on Wednesday after feeling terrible pain from the canker sore. Immediately after I drank the ACV I pissed my pants and forgot who I was for about a half hour. I may have used too much or something, also, are you supposed to swallow it? Didn't really care for that.

I tried using the ACV yesterday due to the mostly positive feedback and because I was desperate for ANYTHING to ease this horrible pain and let me tell you.. IT DOES NOT WORK!!!! First off it burns like hell, and this morning I wake up and instead of just having a small one on the side of my tongue I know have like 5 of them going all the way down the side of my tongue. I am way worse of now then I was before. Please think twice before trying this! Yesterday, I was in pain but today I can barely even drink water because it hurts so much.

used ACV on a qtip on My sores- got MORE! grew into a huge sore and got more on my tounge- all the pain for nothing! Went to the dentist, who referred me to an oral surgeon who confirmed that it had only aggravated my sores... DONT USE THIS!

Some Ulcers are caused by acid. In this case, ACV will make it worse. For me, the Apple Cider Vinegar fixed mine in 45 mins. Mine was so horrid, it hurt so badly I couldn't even breathe right. This fixed it.
