I had the salt and peroxide recipes, too, but were scared to use them. The salt recipe said to skip that if I had burning. I suppose it's still worth trying at least once.

On the peroxide, I have a gross background story (sorry). Last summer I had blood under my big toe nail. The doctor removed half the nail where the blood was to check for cancer. It came back clean, but I asked about putting on peroxide. He was emphatic that I not do this. He said peroxide was an irritant, like alcohol w/o the major pain, and would slow the healing process. I applied this logic to my mouth, but maybe the mouth is different?

My poor doctors don't know what's about to hit them. You guys have armed me with some great questions on the different discussion boards. They may not thank you, but I certainly do!!!
