Warm salt water: If you have been diagnosed with an aphthous ulcer a good home remedy is warm salt water. An aphthous ulcer should go away by itself in 2 weeks. Avoid spicy foods. Ulcers are bacterial, usually from trauma. If you have acid reflux and get frequent ulcers i would suggest an ENT and a gastroenterologist.
