Cold Sore Canker Sore


Canker sores and cold sores are not the same. Cold sores, another common mouth ailment similar to canker sores, are caused by herpes. Cold sores, usually occur outside the mouth--on the lips, chin, cheeks or in the nostrils. When cold sores do occur inside the mouth, it is usually on the gums or the roof of the mouth. Inside the mouth, cold sores are smaller than canker sores, heal more quickly, and often begin as a blister. Canker sores commonly occur only in the mouth, and are often the result of poor dental hygiene and other mouth irritations, but not by herpes.


Canker sores are not cold sores and have no link to cold sores and there is no medication to treat canker sores. Cankers sores, unlike cold sores, will usually go away on their own within one to three weeks. Canker sores are not contagious, and can cause a lot of pain when the person eats or drinks. Hard, crunchy food should be avoided by people with canker sores, since these foods can make the canker sores and pain associated with canker sores worse.
