I understand why salt is needed, to dry out the sore and heal it. My doctor said: “gargle with salt water that is as warm as you can handle without burning yourself?” Why was the “warm” aspect of this emphasized so much?
I used to get canker sores all the time. Tried so many different remedies when I would get them to deal with them, and the best thing I personally ever found was Peroxyl mouthwash by Colgate…. I would get one, and rinse with the peroxyl and it would be gone within a day.
