I've got this painful sore on the roof of my mouth and it's making eating pretty difficult. It hurts whenever anything touches the sore. I've never dealt with this kind of sore before and I'm not sure what's causing it. There's a noticeable bright red spot in there. Can you tell me what this might be? What's going on here?

I've hurt the inside of my mouth while brushing my teeth and it's been really painful for about three days now. It's started affecting my teeth because of an ulcer. What can I do to help with the pain? I'm really struggling with this.

You may have developed a mouth ulcer due to the injury. To help with the pain and promote healing, you can use a topical oral gel containing Choline Salicylate and Cetalkonium Chloride. Apply the gel directly to the ulcer 3-4 times a day after meals and at bedtime. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg tablets as needed for pain relief. Make sure to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the ulcer.

I've been noticing that when I wake up in the morning and spit out the saliva that's built up overnight, it's yellow. I've tried brushing my teeth before going to bed and even using mouthwash, but it still happens. It's been a problem for the past couple of months. Any idea what might be causing this?

This can be due to conditions like dry mouth, sinus infections, or even acid reflux. I would recommend using an antibacterial mouthwash like Listerine twice daily and staying hydrated throughout the day. If the issue persists, you can try over-the-counter antacids like Tums for acid reflux. If symptoms continue, consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
