Yeah, don't rip them off. Sounds like it would end badly. Maybe try praying.

Cotton balls and cotton rounds are two different things.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 04-15-2010, 06:47 PM

wtf is wrong with you people and why are you getting canker sores? Is this a Warsaw thing?

ninjaface · 04-15-2010, 07:14 PM

It could be a warsaw thing. I wasn't born there, but I lived there for about 17 years. I probably got some moderate exposure. Things seem to have cleared up now.

Maybe you need to cut back on the copenhagen.

Fruitacious B · 04-15-2010, 11:06 PM

Canker Sores are not contagious. I've never had one on my tongue, and I pray I never do. I have had that deal where a taste bud is enflamed and you can't help but rub it on your teeth or the roof of your mouth, and I hate that enough as it is.

Cotton round vs cotton ball

Nope, I didn't know that. "Cotton Round" sounded like how I would expect Dent of FC to say "Cotton Ball". Thank you for clearing that up.

Quote:

Enflamed Taste Buds

Yes, those too. I hadn't had one of those until about a year ago. Since, I've had probably 7-10. The cank on the tongue is the same feeling...just a little exaggerated. It's more painful, looks much more badass, and has lasted longer than they normally do.

Try praying

Good call. I'll include them tonight.

Maybe it's from eating too much ham

I actually hadn't considered that. I'll try to cut back on my ham consumption.

Thanks, guys.

Here's a few titbits of advice. First, I would lay off high-sugar soda and switch to diet (sugar is just terrible for you anyways). Second, get yourself an antiseptic mouthwash like Listerine. Wash your mouth with this shit immediately when you wake up and right before you go to bed. Make it the first thing you do in the morning, before you even take a piss and the last thing you do before you sleep. Finally if you don't notice any improvement after some time, I suggest visiting your Doctor. There are prescription treatments for canker sores.

I've had that a couple times too. I do the same thing as with canker sores. Orajel, then cut the fucker off.

Solid tips. I am on strictly diet soda now, but have been eating more candy type shit than normal for the past month or so. I'll get that shit out of here.

And I do the mouthwash at night, but not morning. Also, it's not listerine...it's Act. And it doesn't hurt my canks...so maybe it's not powerful or something. Not sure. It's what the dentist told me to use for teeth betterment.

Lastly, I have talked to both the doc and dentist about them. They claim there's nothing they can give for prevention, only treatment of symptoms. They suggest L-Lysine and a different toothpaste, both of which don't work. Fucking assholes.

Diet soda is still acidic I believe. Also the act doesn't hurt your canks like Listerine because it doesn't contain alcohol.

Fruitacious B · 04-16-2010, 11:33 AM

Acidic or not, diet soda is awful. I would rather not drink soda at all before drinking diet.

In regards to mouthwash, I was using the no-alchohol Crest mouthwash awhile back, and it still burnt my mouth like a motherfucker, perhaps even more than normal mouthwash....especially when I had a canker sore.

Ugly Bastard · 04-16-2010, 12:44 PM

What the fuck is wrong with you people and the canker sores? It has to be a Warsaw thing, or at least an Indiana thing. I used to get them too, but now I sit here in bewilderment listening to you guys bitch about them.

Orgazmo · 04-16-2010, 12:51 PM

I really thought I was unique with how often I got them. I'm happy you assholes are suffering too. Thanks.

f3lix · 04-16-2010, 03:21 PM

I got canker sores AND cold sores a lot more in Indiana than in Vegas. Likely a climate thing if UB is experiencing the same thing living in Houston.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 04-16-2010, 06:24 PM

whatever it is its likely in the water. kind of interesting. I grew up with well water. Did all of you drink public indiana water?

Orgazmo · 04-16-2010, 06:32 PM

Nope.

Aren't cold sores herpes? F3lix, do you have herpes?

Or is that a myth?

EDUCATE ME.

Ugly Bastard · 04-16-2010, 07:03 PM

Cold sores are herpes and I'm 98% confident every member of this board is positive for Herpes Simplex I. We all got it eating or drinking after someone or from kissing someone.

I don't get cold sores or canker sores. I've gotten one canker sore in my entire life and it was hell. I truly feel sorry for you.

The thing about mouthwash is that it has to be antiseptic, which neither crest, scope, or act are. It pretty much has to be Listerine. Also doing this may help prevent you from getting sick. Germs come out in your mouth at night while you sleep. Lots of infection begins in this manner. But once you wake up, they retreat from your mouth and are harder to kill. Which is why you want to make sure you do it immediately upon rising.

And your doctors were right about no "cure" for cankers, but I thought presecription treatment may lead to faster recovery.

Sign me up for the 2% ... never had any sort of cold sore ever.

Ugly Bastard · 04-17-2010, 01:26 AM

I'll bet you $1,000 you'd still test pos for Herpes I tho.

f3lix · 04-17-2010, 04:23 AM

I have it. I gave it to numerous girlfriends, too.

Der Fuhrer · 04-17-2010, 03:42 PM

Der Fuhrer · 04-17-2010, 05:19 PM

On another note, I shaved about two days ago and the hairs have grown back in. I have no ingrown hairs! It's a fucking miracle, and I owe it all to Nubblies. Thank you for the advice. May the gods bless you and your families.
