If you've never had one, imagine that the inside of your lip or gum had acid appear beneath the upper layer of skin and it dissolves its way out. Now you have a nice open wound in your mouth. You're then sensitive to any sort of acidic foods (ie citrus, tomatoes, vinegar), salt, or spicy foods. Then imagine it lasts for a week plus.

Anyone else here know what I'm talking about? Just had to share with someone, the wife's asleep.
I hear ya man, i get canker sores ALL the time, sometimes i get 3-4 cankers at the same time1 :( unfortunately there is no cure for it, BUT if you got CVS, you can ge this oinment like thing in the dental department called "Kanka+", it's a small bottle with this thick liquid in it, it acts as an anesthetic, it makes the pain go away and at the same time cure the canker sore. I use it all the time and it makes living more more manageble! :)
