Is it possible for a canker sore to get infected?
PostPosted: Thu May 19, 2005 1:08 am
I have had a canker sore in my mouth for quite some time... Probably a week and a half... The pain is getting worse every day, and it feels like it is spreading to my lip...
I keep hoping it will dry up, but it never does... If it stays there, could it get infected or anything? Am I in any further danger from it?
If I had some "Cream of Tarter" I may be able to get rid of it... It's just a matter of not washing it away with saliva... If it stays on there for a few hours, it goes away... It never fails, except for when it's positioned too close a strong flow of saliva, such as right on top of a gland... I need to go to a store for that, but I bet it is somewhat expensive... Those small packages of spice and stuff tend to be expensive... Anyhow, I will get it if it doesn't go away soon...
