Mostly time: It will just heal in time. There is not much you can do to speed the process. Avoid hot and spicy food as that just irritates it more. Salt water rinses may help.

Laser: If you can find a health provider who uses lasers, a brief exposure to the laser light can accelerate the healing and reduce the pain.
