Sore throat and sore mouth.

Hi, I've just had a really really nasty infection, which started with a chesty cough accompanied with chest pains. That lasted a couple of days and has now gone. I got that from my 2 children who had the same type of cough/cold.
Straight after that I got a really bad cold and since a couple of days ago, a sore throat.
Now I've noticed that the gum at the far end of my mouth (where my wisdom tooth should be) has little tiny white pimples (about 2) and when I press on it it's really sore, it even hurts to swallow.
It's so far back that I thought it was my tongue but it's in fact my gum (on top and on the inside).
Has anyone had that before? What could it be? An ulcer?

hi,
sounds very possible that it is ulcers - try a mouthwash that helps ulcers or gargle & rinse your mouth out 3/4 times a day with warm salt water or tcp-see if that helps-youve probably got this as you are obviously down after having 2 colds etc in a short time-your body is low,i,m sure that given a few days it will improve-if not pop along & see the dentist - good luck :yesyes:
