Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Arisaema amurense, commonly known as Amur Jack-in-the-pulpit, is used in traditional Chinese medicine under the name "Tian Nan Xing" (天南星). In traditional practice, its processed form is sometimes included in herbal formulas aimed at treating "phlegm" conditions, swelling, or sores in the mouth. However, while its inclusion is based on longstanding herbal traditions, there is no robust scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness specifically for canker sores (aphthous ulcers). Most references to Arisaema amurense relate to its use for respiratory issues, swelling, or as an anti-inflammatory and expectorant. Its use for oral ulcers or canker sores is rare and typically found within broader multi-herb formulas rather than as a primary or stand-alone treatment. Additionally, the raw tuber of Arisaema amurense is toxic and must be processed to reduce irritants. There are no modern clinical studies directly evaluating the efficacy or safety of Arisaema amurense for canker sores. Thus, its use for canker sores is supported primarily by traditional and anecdotal reports, with a very low level of evidence and no direct scientific validation.
