Aphthous ulcers, or canker sores, are a common cause of pain for many people who suffer from oral health issues. From the insides of your cheeks and lips to the bottom of your gums and even under your tongue, these tiny but excruciating ulcers may develop anywhere in your mouth. Differentiating canker sores from fever blisters—which often appear on the outside of the lips or at the corners of the mouth—is crucial.
Typical canker sores have a red border and a white or yellowish core. They can be circular or oval in shape. All of a sudden, even talking, drinking, and eating might become excruciatingly uncomfortable. Canker sores have no known etiology but have been associated with stress, small oral injuries, acidic or spicy meals, hormonal changes, hormone shortages (especially B12, zinc, folic acid, and iron), and several autoimmune diseases.
Canker sores don’t hurt as much as you would think right away. As a matter of fact, it takes them a few days before they’really hurt. With this special function, you have a little window of opportunity to deal with them before the agony is too much to handle. Usually, you’ll feel a tingling or burning feeling before the sore ever appears, giving you a crucial opportunity to intervene early.
