Anyone have mouth sores?

Question

I've been unlucky enough to have some of the weirdest pregnancy symptoms... Now I have a mouth sore, 3 weeks so far and getting bigger and more painful! I see my doctor this week again. Anyone else get mouth sores? Mine is on my tongue.

Answer

I know this is Fox News, but I just came across this. I didn’t read it. You might want to follow up.

Answer

Yep. I’ve also had bleeding gums this whole pregnancy! My dentists said it’s for sure pregnancy related and will go away once I give birth. I use a mouth sore specific mouth wash and make sure the gently brush my teeth and floss.

Answer

I had them as a result of a blood disorder a couple years ago, so not directly pregnancy related (although the disorder was found while pregnant). Rinse your mouth with salt water. It helps. They might be able to prescribe you a numbing rinse as well to help reduce the pain and allow you to eat.

Answer

Have you started any new medications you could have had a reaction to? About 6 years ago, I was on Bactrim for a UTI and I didn’t know it was a sulfa based medicine. I’m severely allergic to sulfa and it gave me severe mouth sores. I ended up in the ER.

Answer

My gums have been super sensitive. They don't really bkeed, just swell up and get really inflamed. Takes several days and very careful brushing before it clears up

Answer

Is it like a canker sore? I get those frequently. Some believe it's due to certain vitamin or mineral deficiencies. I think I get mine from eating/drinking too many acidic foods. Gargling or swishing with salt water often helps.
