Has anyone had a “canker sore” on their tongue before? I just woke up with this sore yesterday. Eating has now become a painful experience. Food has to be in liquid form to go down and even then it still hurts. Booked in with the doc for later today.
Dinner will need to some kind of soup.
Stress caused apparently, it’s amazing how much stress messes up our physical health too.

Oh yes. I got sick as a kid with something that caused them and now I get one or two mild ones often if I am about to come down with the flu. Salt water gargle bit weirdly avoid salty or acidic food. Bonjela helps (do they still make that?)

Rub some Vegemite on it, that stings but can help. Or get some Chlorofluor oral gel from the chemist.
Make sure you’re up on B12
