I have a small fleshy growth inside my mouth on the cheek . I had a canker sore near the gum on the same side that has healed. I have gotton canker sores due to stress but this the first time I have found what looks like a skin tag in my mouth thought it was due to stress but it didnt go away when the canker healed. what could it be? thank you
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, Canker sore can occur due to trauma physical or chemical or even due to stress. I would suggest you to visit to a Dentist and get the checkup done. Take warm saline gargles 3-4 times a day to give a soothing effect. Apply Colonel oral ointment or McCoppin topically over the affected area. Avoid eating of hot and spicy foodstuffs for some days. Take multivitamin tablets. Relief stress if any, relax and take complete rest for 2-3 days. Maintain a good oral hygiene, use antiseptic mouthwash gargles like chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily to prevent super infection and promote healing. Hope this helps out. Regards...
