Sore Line Inside Cheek, Sore Spot Underneath Tongue. Any Ideas?
I have a line inside my cheek that is sore and it comes and goes but this is the longest it has bothered me, at least a week now. At first I thought it was chewing gum that contains sorbitol but I haven't chewed gum in 3 days and it's not better, if not worse. Sometimes underneath my tongue gets a sore spot also.
