Frequent canker and cold sore01/22/2010 |
I get frequent (month-to-month or every 2 weeks) canker and cold sore on either my lips, gums,or/and under my tongue? What can I do to decrease the number of times I get this problem.
Your condition is known as RAS or Recurrent Aphthous Ulceration. Because this could be based upon a number of causes, you should be evaluated by your dentist/primary care provider.Best wishes.
