Sorry to tell you this but I've had sores in my mouth for about 10years I had no idea I had lupus so I would go to the hospital and they would tell me I had a virus and give me something for the pain it wasn't until a couple of years that I found out it was flare up from lupus I hope yours goes away because I still get them but that's just me get some of that mouth wash that numb's ear, your mouth, you have to ask the doctor good luck.My friend and remember your not alone
I kept getting them and went to my doctor and he told me I had dry mouth syndrome. It started after I started myfortic. He prescribed me a steroid ointment which I use very sparingly. I also use fennel seed very lightly as it lowers the blood sugar. But I have decreased saliva becasue of the myforic, lupus, and the teas I drink. When I was able to take ginger it helped soooo very much. I am praying for you. God bless.
