Does anyone know of any local herb/bush that can help sore in the mouth, prescriptions medications doesn't seem to help.
Thank You.
For canker sores if you can get ground goldenseal
root and sprinkle the powder on it it cures it fast. Don't know about any other mouth sores but can vouch for it working on canker sore.
A good medicine for you to look for or possibly grow as the climate is perfect would be stevia.
Oldtimers used to refer to Love Bush (Vervain)... apparently, the pharmaceutical properties of its tannins makes it an effective astringent and useful as a mouthwash to treat bleeding gums and mouth ulcers.
As a mouthwash, an infusion prepared with vervain aerial parts may also be used as a mouthwash to treat ulcers in the mouth and soft, spongy gums.
There are also some aphrodisiac properties that might be applied as healing progresses.
(Obviously, consult your reliable bush doctor or formally licensed pharmacist, at your own trust level & discretion).

perhaps you should check the drug store or pharmacy to find them.
Maybe you should go to the doctor to find out what the sore in your mouth really is...
please note, the person had first mentioned that they took prescription medication, that means the person went to a doctor.
I NOTICED SOME PERSONS HAD MENTIONED GROUND GOLDENSEAL ROOT AND STEVIA, WHERE CAN I FIND THESE PLANTS, I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO FIND THEM.
OBVIOUS, just because someone took prescription medication does not mean they went to a doctor! I can pull some meds out of granny's cabinet tonight and swallow them,,,does that mean I went to a doctor? {edited by TBNet}
'Glenn' when someone said they took prescription medication and it doesn't seems to help, i am sure anyone would come to the conclusion that the medication was prescribe for that individual.
Okee Dokee OBVIOUS!
OBVIOUS...let's say I was depressed..and my sister had a perscription for Prozac. I popped a few of them. They did not work. So I posted on a website, such as this:
"Does anyone know of any local herb/bush that can help with depression, prescriptions medications doesn't seem to help."
Do not assume that if someone has taken a perscribed medecine that it belongs to them. Also have you noticed that herbs/bush has not responded lately? either she is real busy or she solved her problem... Without a prescription!
I have gotten medication from my doctor and my dermatologist, i am going to speak to my dentist about it, when i am on the medication it goes away but then it comes right back, sometimes after about five months, so i am still here with the problem
YOU STILL HAVE NOT SAID WHAT THE SORE IS!!!!
'Glenn' I am not assuming anything, I do believe that there are persons who will take someone else prescribed medication, I do not believe that person would come on this forum and say the medication did not help their problem.
Glen,let it go!
OK D...i will. But someone wnats advice but wasting everyones time if they, for whatever reason, will not say what the sore is. I have a feeling I know...
Okay folks, this topic is officially closed as many of the messages being left are subjected to having to have some mouths getting washed out with old fashioned soap.
