Customer Reviews of Cankermelts Discs, 18-Count Boxes (Pack of 2)
Customer Review: Too stiff to adhere!
Summary: 1 Stars
I've only tried these once, and I plan to try again when I have a sore in a more easily accessible area, but last night I had a horrible experience with this product. My canker sore is large, on the inside of my lower lip where it curves, and the canker melt disc was too firm to bend around the area. I couldn't get it to adhere, and when I tried to use my finger to hold it for a few minutes, it stuck to my finger, so when I took my finger out of my mouth, it felt like I was peeling a bandage off the sore. Ouch!
I decided to persevere, because I am at my breaking point with this sore, which is the largest and worst one I have ever had. I tried to use before I went to bed, and I slept with my arm across my face to hold my lip against my teeth, because otherwise the disc would slip out of place. When I woke up two hours later, the disc had glued the sore to my upper teeth, and glued my lips together on one side, so I had to swish water around and forcibly peel them apart, which was excruciating.
I ended up rinsing the area with hydrogen peroxide and going back to bed. When I woke up this morning, I saw no change. The sore is still painful, large and white, and swollen underneath with a red, painful throbbing border. Whatever effects this product might have had on my sore were far overshadowed by the pain of trying to unglue the area from my teeth and the frustration of trying to make it adhere.
All in all, I had a very bad experience with canker melts. I'm hopeful after reading the positive reviews that this product might work for me in the future, maybe on the inside of my cheek or something. If it does, I will update this review accordingly.
Customer Review: Hurt too much!
Summary: 1 Stars
Very disappointing - putting the disc on my canker sore hurt like a #&^!*. I stuck it out for two minutes or so but when the initial pain didn't fade I had to remove it. Still hurt for another few minutes afterward. Maybe the remedy works wonders; I'll probably never know (unless I get desperate enough to try it again). I've had this problem my whole life so I should have known the claims were too good to be true.Customer Review: Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars
I was so desperate that I actually bought these "money melts". What a waste of money and time (tasted lousy too). Don't get me wrong, I prefer natural products, but these were not helpful for me.Customer Review: There's better stuff available
Summary: 1 Stars
These did nothing for me. Ask your doctor about aphthasol, a prescription drug approved by the FDA -- which means it's passed rigorous government testing standards. Aphthasol changed my life.
