What Causes Red Painful Bumps On The Roof Of Mouth/under Tongue?

I get small red painful bumps on the roof of my mouth, and on and under my tongue when I get a cold. This cold has lasted over 3 weeks with thick mucous and chronic coughing. How do I lessen the pain of the bumps and get rid of the coughing and cold?

Hi,Dear Thanks for the query to HCM virtual Clinic.
I studied your query with available details given in your query.
I understood your health concerns.
Cause of the red painful lumps on mouth roof and under tongue-
My clinical opinion on your query is-
-Cancre Ulcers/Apthous Ulcers as there is viral cold.
-The chronicity of this cold with cough with thick expectoration,is mostly due to underlying chronic debility and concurrent secondary infection.
-Possibility of other Viral(HIV)/protozoal infections needs to be done as the -chronic amoebiasis (could be without any vivid clinical abdominal problems)with eosinophilia could cause such Apthous ulcers with chronic cough.
-Possibility of hidden TB in the body could also cause such painful bumps.
Remedy-
Consult ER Physician,
Do Complete blood tests with ESR / ELISA TESTS/STOOL TESTs /IGRA -TB Blood Tests/X-ray Chest/AFB sputum test would fix the cause and treatment of such a case.
Take treatment with guidance from ER Physician.

Hope this reply would resolve your query and would help you to plan treatment with your doctor.
