Canker sores are, as you would expect, different than cold sores--more painful and not contagious, thus cold sore/fever blister medication will probable not work that well. However, if you can find a cheap OTC creme similar to Anbesol that will help to numb the affliction (or anything with lidocaine in it), that might assistance some. I rinse with ACT Plus (the flouride rinse beside anti-bacterial properties) and this helps next to the pain. You can use this a few times a afternoon. Try to stay away from pure alcohol-based rinses as this will burn like crazy, but ACT have a low alcohol level, so it tend to clean lacking burning.

Too much water?

The best item I have found is to whip L-Lysine and acidophillus supplements. Apply Abreva to the sore. its expensive and worth it it cuts the healing time surrounded by half and numbs and ease the pain. DO NOT EAT: NUTS, OATMEAL, BERRIES, tomatoes, citrus, garlic, onions, or anything high-ranking in arginine this will nurture the virus and cause it to thrive. You want things that are big in lysine (an amino acid): eggs, dairy, meat. If you want to see the lysine/arginine ratio for a food you can check here: http://herpes.com/nutrition.shtml...

Oh or you can always simply go to the doctor and acquire an anti viral med. Some you take adjectives the time if you get alot of outbreaks, some you hold when you get them to serve it go away faster. Your doc can abet decide whats right for you.

Update:
It occur to me that many will enlighten you to put ice. A little bit is OK. But if you over do it it can in fact burn your lip and slow the healing. Also carmex can be soothing and numbing, but I enjoy found it only really help the healing once it have scabbed over, but my dad swears by it. but like I said intake certain things will bring in it flare up and hurt so much worse.

Update 2:
Many people appointment canker sores cold sores and vise versa. (you even said it was a cold sore, but some don't read highly cafefully before answering.)
Many spread them by making this not conversant mistake. The fact that you draw from them when you are getting sick is an indicator that it is indeed viral and therefore a cold sore.
