What Could Recurred Yellow Roof Of Mouth With Red Spots Indicate?
The back of the roof of my mouth is yellow with a few red spots. It started about a month ago and the red spots were really dark and painful. The pain went away after a few days and so did the red spots, but it stayed yellow. A few days ago it came back again the same as last time. It has almost gone now but is still yellow. What could it be? Thanks
