Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I am a first year student of TCM. My brothers have frequent recurring canker sores. As soon as one goes away, another pops up. I know there are many factors that can cause them. I can't find much information on them. Any basic information and help for relief would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Hi, I don't have much experience with cold sores, except the fact that my mother gets them all the time. One thing that works like a miracle for her is an ointment called Jade Dew that I get from Blue Poppy. It's amazing for her. Less severity and frequency since she has been using it. For canker sores I just use Tea Tree Oil. Elie Goldschmidt, L.Ac. Rep for www.liferising.com Receive A Chinese Herbal Pharmacy No Start Up Costs!

What helps me is extra Vit C and the amino acid L-Lysine. The main cause seems to be the combination of an injury to the mouth tissue (like biting down on the cheek while chewing) at a time when under a lot of stress with a low immune system function. At least that's when they occur for me. sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
