Oral Thrush outbreaks because of stress. Help?

Posted on August 21, 2010

Hello,

I am young (22 years). Eat healthy and am in overall good health. I am a huge hypochondriac and I worry myself almost sick constantly. I am always worrying or stressing out for some reason or another. It's gotten pretty bad lately. To the point where I had a panic attack.

I went to the doctor a few months ago because I got a weird mouth rash. He told me it was Oral Thrush and gave me some medicine. It subsided, but now I notice every time I start worrying or getting really stressed out I get an outbreak of oral thrush. I will then calm down, rinse everyday with peroxide and after a few days it goes away. Then a few weeks later I'll get stressed and repeat the same process.

Do you think is is cause for concern since it's persistent and im young? I know it can be a symptom of a underlying issue so I've began worrying a lot again. There is no way I could have HIV as I am abstinent. Like I said I worry and stress ALL the time. The more I'm stressed the worse it gets, however it never gets sever at all. just 5-10 sores in my bottom lip and tongue.

Do you think I should worry over this?

what triggers the appearance of canker sores?

Posted on July 8, 2010

I had some minor oral surgery on Monday, and two or three canker sores have come up since then.

This isn't the first time canker sores followed a dental appointment. Are there dental procedures that might trigger the outbreak of the sores?

They're on the same side of my mouth as the surgery, but not actually where the surgery took place. Neither are they the points where novocaine was injected.
