Been dealing with a canker sore under my tongue for the past week. How bad is it and how long will it last?
I started feeling it about 5 days ago on Monday but it was just a tiny abrasion. I ended up alternating between OraCoat CankerMelts, Listerine Ultraclean and Kanka and it feels like none of them worked. It started forming into a large white disc as you see in the photo around Thursday so I stopped Kanka and thr melts and started gargling salt water repeatedly through the day but it feels like it's not improving at all. Photo was taken today. It's been extremely painful trying to eat, drink, sleep and talk since it keeps rubbing against my lower teeth.
Based on the pic, the length of time and what I've done so far, how long will it last? I have a cleaning on Tuesday, will my dentist be able to provide anything that can make ot heal faster if it hasn't already?
