I'm not sure how to get rid of them quickly.. I know to prevent them it is good to avoid artificial sugars in things like soft drinks.. also avoid having too many acidic foods.. Stress can also lead to canker sores..
How old are you.? I used to get them all the time as a child and teenager.. Once I got into my 20s (now 25) I stopped getting them very often.. I now only get them once every few months..Health Question & Answer

I used to get them a lot, and so did my sister.. I don't think there's anything you can do, because they are caused by a virus.. Our dentist told us to rinse our mouths out with a solution of Milk of Magnesia and water, but that did nothing.. I also haven't found a why to make them go away faster.. I just try to keep my immune system strong by eating nutritious foods, getting enough sleep.. I have noticed that if I eat more sugar than normal, I get a canker sore.. Halloween was always a bad time! If somebody could find a prevention or cure for cankers, they would probably get very rich..Health Question & Answer
