This weekend I noticed some pain under my lower left front teeth. The next day I had a dime sized raised rash (similar to poison oak) on the left portion of my chin. The next day I had a small irritation on the left front of my tongue and the lower left of my bottom lip. Today its tender under my left jaw and I noticed a couple of smaller rash spots on the left side of my face. Any thoughts?
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint the symptoms of rash over the skin as well as irritation of the tongue and gums and tenderness under the jaw with rash spots seems to be probably due to viral infection leading to oral as well as extra-oral symptoms. I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician or a Dermatologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like blood tests and oral swab culture can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly. As of now you can do cool compresses over the rashes and also do warm saline gargles. Hope this helps. Regards.
