you people are wrong.
those arent canker sores you dont get those on your tounge.
theyre just swollen or irritated taste buds. you get them from eating to much sugar or acids.
put ice on them and take ibuprofen. if you want fast relief clip them off VERRRRY carefully with nail clippers or nail scissors.

Yes, that is a canker sore. Canker sores are little open sores found inside the mouth.
Canker sores don't need treatment to go away. They will go away on their own. Usually a few days to a week or so. But there are some things you can do to prevent irritation and pain.
Use ibuprofen to make it become less painful. And use orajel to avoid it becoming any more irritated. Avoid spicy and acidic foods because they will trigger more irritation to the canker sore.

First off, avoid citrus fruit like oranges and pineapple, for those can easily trigger canker sores. I get them all the time. I usually wait it out and they go away, but if you are in a lot of pain try taking some advil every four to six hours. They will go away on their own.
However, if you have the canker sores for more than two weeks, definitely call your doctor, as it could be much more serious.
