I have a fever blister in my mouth like in the area that you would put chewing tabacco in what can I do for it

Question

It hurts pretty bad and it on my lower gums what should i do?

I never have chewed tabacco I just couldn't describe the area in the mouth that was bothering me so i used it as an example

Answer 1

Its probably a canker sore. You pretty much just have to wait those things out. Keep acidic foods away from it in the meantime. I get one everytime I go to the dentist and the last time it took a week for it to go away.

Answer 3

If it is inside of your mouth, it isn't a fever blister. It is an ulcer and you have to treat it completely differently than a fever blister. I have been getting those things since I was a kid and they hurt like the devil. I used to get four or five at a time. OUCH!! I have tried every rememdy under the sun. The one thing that really does help is salt water. Pour some warm water into a glass and put in salt; heavy on the salt; stir it around and put it in your mouth. Let the water sit right on your blister. It is going to hurt...know this. Hold it as long as you can. Then spit the water out. You are "drying" the ulcer up by doing this. It will begin to go away almost immediately. Do it several time each day and you wills shorten it's life by days.

You mentioned that it was in the area where you would put tobacco. If you are a user of tobacco, you may need to go to the doctor. Mouth cancer is a very real concern with chewing tobacco users. Take it seriously. Good luck...

That isn't a fever blister that is a canker sore. You get those from something in your stomach. Either you are getting too much of something or not enough. You can get medicine from over the counter. Orajel makes one and there is one called Kanka. It numbs the spot for you. I know it can be painful when you eat with one of those.

Do you Chew? If so get checked. Ulcerations could be cancerous. Chew diffinately causes mouth cancer.

If you dont chew, wait it out. Cold sores go away with a little time. You can rinse your mouth with salty water couple times per day or use the new Peroxide Mouthwash by Colgate.

Talk to your dentist.

Answer 8

Cold sores are caused by the herpes virus. Many of us already have the cold sore virus dormant in our bodies, and never have a flare up of cold sores. We contracted it as children, as it is a very common virus, and children pick it up easily as they often share food and drinks, and may be less concerned about hand washing and hygiene. Cold sores can be transmitted even when the person does not have a cold sore, though it is less likely to happen then.

Answer 9

If it is white, it is a canker sore and will go away. If it is red and scabby, it is Herpes Type 1 and you it will come and go life. Since it is on the inside, my guess is that it is white and a canker sore. It hurts and will go away in a few weeks.

What to do to make the pain less, rinse with salt water and use ground up cloves. Cloves are very effective for numbing pain in the mouth. Works much better then ambersol (sp) with teething babies and lasts longer. Don't believe me try it. Cloves are only a $1 in your spice section.

Answer 10

I am absolutely terrified and I feel so alone. I just found out last week that I tested positive for hsv1 and 2. I have been with the same man for the past 10 years and within the last year found out that he has cheated on me with numerous women. I am so scared that I can give it to my children by kissing them and them eating with me...I feel like my whole life has changed. And even though the nurses, my doctor, and websites say that a lot of people have it I still feel like I am by myself. My self esteem has dropped and I feel like I have been used up. But now, My life is very happy. Thanks

Rinse with hydrogen peroxide and water 3 times a day. I have to do it when I bite my cheek. And to the people that said to stop chewing when did this person said that they actually did chew? Its a fever blister!!!
