How long will it take for my white tongue and bad breath to go..?
I've had this for about 3 years now, and I didn't use to brush my tongue and now this is the consequence! I bought an orabrush like 8 days ago, and have been using it to brush my tongue. And I brush my teeth well.. But the thing is, I have braces, so I think that that's contributing aswell! But the bad breath is coming from the back of my throat.. Do you have any home remedies that could help?
Thanks!
multiple canker sores and white patches of loose skin inside of mouth?
Hello.
The other day I woke up with one side of my neck (right lymph node) hurting. Gradually it got a little painful to swallow. Later the next day I started suffering severe muscle aches (head to toe), and my lymph node had swollen and it was very painful. I noticed a canker sore on the inside of my cheek. Later that night, another one appeared on the inside of my upper lip. Througout the night, i developed a fever of 102 and 2 canker sores multiplied to 30 or more all over the inside of my lips and cheeks. I do have a nervous habit of biting my lips and cheeks to the point where they bleed, (had it for years) but never have I experienced so many sores at once. Along with the sores I have large areas of slightly raised white patches of skin. My lips are swollen, I cant eat, the muscles pains and fever went away, but pain is worse in my mouth.
anyone else experience something similar to multipe sores? Its not herpes (that occurs on outside of mouth) Could it be Lupus?
thanks
Note: I went to a dentist today because I was really concerned and I have two impacted wisdom teeth which I thought that was causing the pain and swelling in my lymph node. She was horrified by the number of canker sores I had and said the white patches could be Lupus, but it could be nothing (im hoping just consequence of me biting my lips and cheeks too much). Really, serious answers only please, hopefully someone with a medical background or knowledge or someone who has had similar or same experience.
