It could be a mouth ulcer, which I get when I have a cold because you get run down. Get some bonjela and some vitamin C and zinc supplements, they always help me x x x

hey, i think it might be an ulcer coz it hurts i the same way an ulcer does but its so far back right by where my last teeth are so i cant see properly and i'm not sure what do you think? could it be an ulcer?

It probably is! It should go in a couple of days, but if its bothering you, try and go to the pharmacist and they will be able to recommend things to take it off. Hope it gets better soon! x x x

Ive got a really painful area in my gum above my furthest back wisdom tooth - been bugging me for days - I'm using bonjela at mo and does help abit. It also only started after I had the flu vacs - think it must because I was run down.

this is weird i have the same thing right at the back of my mouth right side was going to post for advice, i had my very back tooth out at least 3 yrs ago its swollen and very sore to the touch where the tooth should be even when i swallow and my tongue touches it it's painful this is day 2 of having it so any ideas would be great was hoping its not an abcess starting but dont know if you can get it where there used to be a tooth, sorry for hijacking this post a bit xx

I don't know if it does have anything to do with it, but theres plenty on the net about antidepressants being related to pain above the gum line - odd

hey again, sorry for posting again i'm just really worried. i have a sore throat and i have this ulcer thing well if it is an ulcer and the whole of mouth is sore and it feels really horrible. could it be mouth cancer? is it all just from having a bit of a cough and sore throat? can you get ulcers anywhere in the mouth?
