Have anyone heard of a fever blister in between the gums and next to tounge on the side?

I have a fever blister, not inside lip like everyone says but under gums next to the side of my tounge where usually cause most of the saliva, which makes it hard to keep dry. Tried putting salt(arrrggghhhhh) on it, goes away for just a bit. Is there any way to heal this. I'm in great pain 24/7, hurts to eat, for example just by trying to stick my tounge out really hurts. When i wake up, i feel the pain already.

go to the dentist. could be many things. could be a tooth abcess or blocked saliva gland.
Reply:Sounds like a canker sore to me. They last about a week and are really painful. Avoid citrus.
Reply:Rinse with a mix of peroxide and baking soda, if that don't work go and see your dentist.
Reply:It could be anything if it is a sore it is a canker sore. Go have you Dentist check it make sure it just a canker sore. If so he will have a medication that will make it better. Ask him if he has a medication called Debacterial it a swab that will not only heal the sore but will take the pain away immediately it burns for a few seconds on first contact but it will heal immediately.
Reply:its called a kanker sore. just brush your teeth alot and it wil heel.
Reply:generally it could be two things: canker (apthous ulcer) or herpetic lesion. if you had these types of painful sores before, your parents have it (esp mom), and they look reddish with a white border, then it's probably a canker. if it's crusty, bulby looking, then it may be herpes.





herpes is cause by a virus and easily catchable. alot of people have it and it goes away with time, anti-viral meds (ie valtrex). avoid any triggers like the sun, stress, biting your tongue, lips. however, its an uncommon spot for herpes, but it can occur.





some say, canker sores are viral too. people don't know how it happens. they just know it's recurrent, it seems to be familial, common in chicas, and they HURT!!!! sometimes some anti-virals help, but most we can do is treat the pain. there's a topical anesthetic OTC called Kanka that's awesome!!! you have to reapply it after eating, lasts for about 2 hours, and kills when you first put it on, but.... dang it feels so good when it works. ulcers generally goes away in a week.





good luck and happy thanksgiving
