I have some mouth sores on th upper part of my mouth, I have taken mouth paint (clozole) but I still cant take anything. its too painful. plz advice
Canker sores are a little mysterious. I use pain medicine like Advil, and then brush my teeth after eating and rinse with Listerine. This really helps, but mostly you have to grin and bear it.
What are the main causes/medication/prevention of mouth sores?

What lessens the time they are in my mouth for me is brushing my teeth more often than usual and using the bristles of the brust to rub the sore spots. It seems to shorten the sores life-span I think.

If they are on the soft tissue (ie..the inside of your cheek, not on your gums) then find a dentist that can administer a dose of Debacterol. Unfortunately, this is not a med that the dr can prescribe an rx for. It’s an acid-based solution that he will apply with a q-tip type instrument into the sore. It will burn BAD, but the will go away quickly (in a day or so) and it will stop most of the pain. As for the prevention and cause, try to use a toothpaste w/o sodium laurel sulfate like CloSYS. It will be weird to use bc, w/o the sls, it doesn’t foam up. You can find this at a Walgreens or a drugstore. The SLS has been shown in studies to aggravate the mouth lining and create these sores. In the meantime, take some aceto. Ever since i’ve been using the CloSYS, they have stopped showing up! If you keep getting them, tell your dentist. Everyone that i’ve told to use Debacterol and tootpaste combo has gotten the sores much less frequently if at all!
HTH!

I used to get them ALL THE TIME and then I married a Dentist!
This is not meant as medical advice, just the word of a sufferer…
I am prone to mouth sores (canker sores, ulcers… whatever you wanna call ‘em) and have been for about 25years. Use a topical pain killer (Anbesol, etc) to kill the pain, then brush, floss, rinse like normal.
Go to your local Vitamin/Health Store (GNC, Vitamin World) and buy L-Lysine 1000 mgTablets. Take 2 tabs twice a day for 3 days, then 1 tab twice a day for 1 week, Or untill they are gone.
At the first tingle of the next sore START AGAIN…

COLD SORES, or fever blisters, are caused by the herpes simplex virus. We don’t know exactly what stimulates the appearance of these blisters but they are commonly exacerbated by stress, sun, alcohol, sugar, a concurrent viral infection, or simply being run-down. They usually begin with a tiny red spot at the corner of the mouth or nostril, which quickly turns into small blisters. Sometimes there’s just one; sometimes a whole cluster of blisters appears. After these blisters break, a scab forms that can take one or two weeks to heal.
