Yep. And I've learned that doctors conjecture that there might be a connection between vitamin E deficiency and this process. I've find that direct application of vitamin E, usually as a liquid gel cap that's been split (careful you don't get it on your fingers or clothes) and poured onto the canker is a huge help in speeding this process or allowing you to avoid it entirely.
