Just take some water, mix it with teh powder to make a paste and then apply it to the sore.   Posted by leslie on February 05, 2010 1:17 PM .................................   Chamomile tea for cankers.   Posted by anonymous on February 05, 2010 3:16 PM .................................   Mouthwash rinses are good for canker sores - try 3 tablespoons water mixed with 1 tablespoon hydrogen peroxide and swish it around, then spit it out. You can do this 2-3 times a day, helps to keep it clean and heal faster.   Posted by anonymous on February 05, 2010 3:33 PM .................................   @ Lynda, try gargling a mix of 1 tsp soda + a pinch of salt diluted in warm water.   Posted by anonymous on February 05, 2010 4:40 PM .................................   ----------------------------------------- Share Your Comments:   Comments may need to be approved before they are displayed.   Comments: User Name (required): Email Address (required - but your email address will not be displayed): Website URL (not required; please do not include "http://"):
