A canker sore?  There are medications you can buy to help it to heal faster. OR,you can use my dad's old recipe of salt and warm water.  Swish it around and spit it out. The salt helps it to dry up and go away.

I just had my wisdom's out about 2 weeks ago. They STILL hurt a little bit! But yeah, at first I was taking the pain medicine basically to sleep. My dentist told me to take 3 advil liqui-gels ALONG WITH they  pain meds. Just make sure u have some food in your stomach, like a Slim Fast or some pudding is enough. That's all I could eat...that and mashed potatoes. Now, when I try to eat regular foods, it feels like my jaw is being ripped apart. I cannot open it very wide at all without some discomfort. They told me it was normal and it would go away.. OH YEAH, I also still have my blod clots..the gums are not healing over yet...I don't know when they are supposed to heal completely..I heard a co-worker say it took them 6 months to heal over!!!

Rinse with warm, salty water several times a day.  This will help keep salt-hating bacteria on the run.\n\nOn another note, keep in mind that your body renews its outer layers of skin, etc. approximately every 7 days.  Your tongue will be feeling much better this time next week.\n\nBest of everything!

It could be a blister go get it checked by your doc soon could become bad infection if it pops. you can rinse your mouth with peroxyl mouth wash or any mouth wash that's medicated for soars and stuff that might make it shrink a salt water gargle works too. another thing is that it may be an abscess because that's mainly what a fluid filled sac is. so go to your doctor soon.

If the injury is along the bite line in your cheaks, sweetiepieblonde could be correct.\n\nMore likely the injury is getting infected.  In most cases, your body's imune system will catch up to it and resolve it.  If it worsens and does not improve within 10 days you should see a doctor.

well think about it! biting your touge hurts right now imagine sticking a neddle thorugh it, yeah im will to bet it will hurt.   However fortunetly they give you painkillers so it tends not to hurt as much.\n\nBut just rememebr getting your tounge perced kills off many many tastebuds on your tounge and you cannot talk for like 2 days until the swelling goes down.

You are NOT paranoid...open cold sores can cause infection that will never go away...NO Play when cold sore is open or blister stage. Herpes I (cold sores) and Herpes II (gentital herpes) can infect both mouth or other....You have a right to be worried. Good luck

It sounds like the gum tissue is swollen.  This is called Periocoronitis.  As the second molars finish erupting usually around 11 or 12 the gum that covers them needs to pull back and settle in behind the 2nd molar.  As it pulls back over time it changes shape and forms a flap, sometimes a pocket where foot gets stuck.  Peri-coronitis occurs in episodes as the odd bit of food gets stuck and rots in the pocket between the gum and the tooth.  Sometimes the more swollen it gets the more frequently you bite yourself and hence it drags on for some time.  \n\nThe best thing to do is to rinse it and clean it.  This is most comfortable under local anesthetic.  Usually most people learn that you need to get in there and keep the tissue clean at home.   The early you get in there in the process the faster it will resolve.  \n\nI don't recall ever seeing a 12 year old with wisdom teeth, but have seen some 14y.o. with em.

no, worst thing that will happen is they cut your tongue off.  nah, just stop what u were doing or eating before u got the sore and wait a week it will be gone.  in the mean time get one of those pain relief things for your sore.

I had mine out years ago, but I think the doctor advised a week.  Basically, you eat soft food until the pain goes away.  Pain is your best guide - if it hurts to chew on the area (and it may still be tender long after a week), then don't.  It is still safe to eat, but stick to the soft diet until the swelling goes down, and rinse out your mouth to keep the area clean.

My daughter had this when she was 2.  The numerous blisters in her mouth were horrible.  It hurt her to eat or drink anything even with a straw.  We had to drop water into her mouth with a dropper to keep her from becoming dehydrated.  Anyway, our doctor perscribed something called "magic mouthwash" that we would paint inside her mouth.  I think it was made up of Benedryl and Milk of Magnessia.  It was wonderful stuff -- worked like a charm.  Ask a pharmacist or doctor.  I don't think there was anything else in it, but I'm not sure.\n\nGood luck to you.  I know it can be horrible.  She was sick around 7 days.

I remember my grandmother putting perfume on my fever blisters when I was a kid and that would dry them up within a couple of days. If you don't want to do that you can buy a lip medication called lip medex or it could be lip medix. It is like a chap stick.

four to six weeks is the prescribed healing period, You will talk like a goon for about 3-5 days. DO NOT drink ANY alcohol for at least 2 weeks, your tongue will develop a yeast infection, and it is not fun.

You could be biting your heek or tongue. Things in your mouth heal really fast.
