Roof Of Mouth And Gums Sore, Not Red Or Bleeding, Ears Plugged
My gums and the roof of my mouth are sore, but they re not red or bleeding . My ears are also kind of plugged. Sometimes they pop when I blow my nose (feels like I have water in them). I m also very tired. With that, I ve had a few canker sores that have come and gone. Yesterday, I thought I was getting better (no soreness in my mouth and no popping of my ears), but today it started again.

Hello,
Thanks for writing in.
Soreness of mouth and gums usually occurs in cases of-
Heavy intake of spicy foods.
Aphthous ulcers.
Oral habits like tobacco or pan chewing.
I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical evaluation done.
Meanwhile,apply topical corticosteroids on the affected area.
Discontinue tobacco or pan chewing.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Avoid spicy foods.
Take care.
