Mouth Cancer, Canker, Ulcer, Or What? Posted: 08-19-06 23:30pm
pictures of this
problem
this popped up in a matter of days and i'm
not sure what is. I've never had a
canker sore or anything like that and i'm
worried about what this is. I know I
should see a dentist or doctor but the
quality of healthcare around here isn;t
too good so if anyone has an idea of what
this is please tell me. There is a
slight sting when I touch it with my
tongue or rinse with antiseptic
mouthwash.
Thank you.

Well, certainly i'm no medical expert, but
have you considered herpes simplex? It's
extremely common in the oral region, and
might appear any time your immune system
is busy elsewhere, say with a cold.
Generally the blisters appear outside the
mouth on the lips or chin, but may appear
inside, as well. If that's what it is, a
doctor should be able to diagnose it
properly for you.
