I use an aspirin. Just put one aspirin on the ulcer and hold it there for as long as you can stand it. Let it dissolve if possible. This will numb the ulcer and it will be gone in no time!

Just take iron and zinc supplement, the ulcer will disappear within one or two days. Prolonged consumption will stop recurrence of ulcer.

This works, but it hurts, lots … I’ve also used a more friendly version – dab it with gin! Seriously, gin or any other high alcohol spirit seems to work, it still hurts, just not as much and it tastes better. I have kept one miniature bottle of gin specifically for this [I was given it, so I hope that counts as frugal.] and for cold sores. Works a treat.

Glad to see someone else in Yorkshire still uses the ye olde ulcer removal remedy.

This is something I do whenever I get one and you’re right, it hurts sooo much but it will do the job! I mentioned this ‘method’ to one of my friends once who now swears by it (as do I).

I couldn’t quite bring myself to try this, after I had a horrendous break out of fifteen ulcers. However, I vaguely remembered a garlic cure and dutifully rubbed them with a clove of garlic I found in cupboard.

Voila! Next morning? Sayonara, ulcer!

Wonderful website, I can’t believe I didn’t find this before.

I DO THIS.

It hurts like a motha#$*@& but it at least gets them to go away quicker than if you let them simmer on their own.

My ulcers sometimes last for 2 weeks.. drives me mad.
