about
My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.
I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!
Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

A: I've had them too. I'm pretty sure it's an ulcer. Make sure you keep the area clean (as you're doing) and use mouthwash or a salt/water mix to gargle and swish around in your mouth. This will 1) Keep the area disinfected, which would lead to further discomfort and 2) Help heal the wound faster. Hope you feel better soon!
