I woke up to a horribly tasting mouth kinda like when you forget to brush the night before really cottony. I’ve had a sore throat this past weekend and everything has tasted like acid. I just assumed it was my usual tonsillitis and canker sores which I get all the time but it’s never looked like this any help would be greatly appreciated. My doctors is closed till Wednesday. Thanks 🙏
So i have this following popping a tonsil stone out ive had it since june 15/17th it wont go! Its giving me ear ache what can i do? Uk based. The pain went and it started shrinking now we back at start again
hi guys, i noticed that it feels like something is stuck on the left side of my tongue whenever i swallow so i checked it and it feels like it’s coming from this. can anyone please confirm if this is a wart or something?
I am pretty sure this is a canker sore, it started small and then grew bigger. Been pretty stressed lately. No other symptoms.
When I was younger I used to have giant flare ups of painful canker sores - I couldn't eat because the pain was so extreme. A dentist never told me the secret to ending them for good - It's been years since I had one.
Stop all toothpaste except Sensodyne or Biotene - never, under any circumstance use a regular toothpaste again . NO mouthwash of any kind!
No chewing gum of any kind or breath mints - Even one piece of gum can cause a flare up.
Pineapple strips the lining in your mouth and may cause canker sores for some people
Some people have the same reaction from nuts so take note if you get a flare up within a week of eating nuts.
If you follow these rules your life will change forever - the painful sores will be gone.
If you get a flare up - do not use mouth wash - you can rinse with 1/2 tsp. salt in 1 cup warm water but that is all you can do. For extreme pain you can ask about medical grade Lidocaine 2% but only use a dab on a q-tip as this will freeze your entire mouth including yor throat if you use too much.
I hope this helps someone out there who suffers greatly from canker sores.
These have been here for 11-12 days, have been using saltwater rinse every morning and night after brushing since 5 days ago
I think it appeared because i overflossed because i felt something there
Partially just here to vent, also maybe some advice. Has anybody here called out of work for a canker sore?
I’m a photographer at a portrait studio, my entire job is talking and giving people directions. We’re in the middle of photographing a class of 200 people right now and I’m in helllll.
I have a huge sore on the underside of my tongue, and that whole side of my tongue is swollen so every time I move my mouth the sore scrapes against my teeth. I feel like crying on my lunch break right now and I can’t even eat my sandwich.
Is this an acceptable reason to call out? My coworkers are sympathetic but I just don’t think they really get how bad the pain is
First pic most recent, it happened after a couple days of having very chapped dehydrated lips (combined with stress) I’ve had canker sores inside my mouth before but this is kinda in the middle/more outer so it might be something else. Thanks for any advice or opinions.
i get multiple canker sores a month and i normally almost always have 1-2. it’s incredibly irritating. i got some blood work done and i dont have any deficiencies!!
theres another on the inside of my gums by my teeth but i cant take a picture because my tongue is in the way
it hurts to talk, eat, drink, do anything to be honest. i keep applying numbing medication but it burns so bad when i first put it on, any tips??
Hi,
I've been getting mouth ulcers every single day for the last 3 years. Sometimes 7 at a time, sometimes 14. The pain is extreme and constant — I can't speak properly, can't focus on studies, can't work on my career. I feel like I'm losing everything because of this.
Recently the ulcers started appearing in my throat too, which has never happened before. Even I drink 4 litres of water daily.
I've already been seen at AIIMS Delhi and another top medical facility in the Parliament of India. All my blood reports are normal. No medicine has worked so far.
I genuinely can't handle this pain anymore. Has anyone dealt with something like this? Is there a condition or specialist I should be looking into? Any help means a lot.

Had this bad f*cking cancer sore at the bottom right near my wisdom tooth for almost 3 days, it got bigger and more f*cking painful, the pain radiates to my jaw and eyes, had neck headaches, can’t even eat properly cause every-time my mouth move it hurts.
I am currently taking paracetamol for the pain twice a day, and taking Difflam lozenges. Is there anything that would help this bad motherfucker?
Hi, I have a dentist appointment in few days but I noticed some concerning symptoms. Additional info - I was on antibiotics for a month, so probably could be reason for canker sores. Few days ago I noticed a canker sore appeared below inside of my lower lip. As always it hurt like hell but after 4 days pain is much less severe. Yesterday I woke up with sore spot on the inside of my upper lip so I was kinda prepared for another canker sores forming and later that day I confirmed my suspicions. When I look at the place with newer canker sores I see 3 spots really close to each other (two bigger and one really small) but I noticed like the side of my lip with the sores underneath is slightly swollen. It is stressing me out really bad, it is a first time I have them in that place so idk if it’s normal or not. I’m scared I’m missing something . Sorry for the photos does it look like just canker sores for you?
I was recently at an ENT where I asked about my canker sores. pretty much every week and a half for nearly a year, as soon as one ends, another one appears. I’m so tired of the pain. they said that if nothing was out of sorts on my blood test, and my dentist spotted no issues, he said he can only recommend that I take Vitamin B12 even if my levels are normal. He said during certain periods of my life this will just flare up. I started using mouthwash which I haven’t before. what can I do at this point? I legit feel like I’m going crazy and I don’t want this to ruin my vacation in a month.
