Hi guys

Me again i do appologise!! Quick q, had a cup of tea this afternoon and afterwards my right cheek feels all dry and rough? Didnt feel it this morning and dont think i burned my mouth on my tea.

Was at the dentist on 15th for a full check up, so obv if there was anything concerning in the cheek she would of seen it, am i right? Like it wouldnt go to nothing visible to voom in the space of a fortnight? Im sorry if that sounds really stupid trying to calm myself down a bit. My mum said it looks like an ulcer but to me it looks like a slightly red wrinkly patch on my cheek. Just a bit freaked.

Have slight cold and sore throat & cough so been having a lot of throat losengers to keep it at bay & have a filling to get done next week so will get dentist to double check things. I grind my teeth at night and have felt my self bitting on my cheeks (not delibertly) recently. Logiacly i know its highly unlikely to be the c word (23 female dont smoke or drink any more) but of course thats all that my anxiety says it is :(

Have you been using Corsodyl? That can cause lots of issues.

I have actually, didnt even think of that! Been using it diluted but still have the same amount of it in the solution x

There you go then, had similiar problems with Corsodyl before, lay off it unless you have an actual issue. My Orthodontist said it causes more problems than it helps.
