Do I have Oral Herpes?
For the past 4 months I've had a cluster (4-5) irregular shaped
small white bumps in the inner cheeks of my mouth. Ive also had
these lil bumps work from the back of my mouth to the front
(around my lips). it feels like at times my skin is shredding
inside my mouth and I seem to get like 2-3 cold sores in my mouth
once a week. Now they have also started to work their way to the
corners of my mouth (inner lips). Is this Oral Herpes?? Someone please help me!!

Dentists have medical
Dentists have medical knowledge of the oral structure.the dentist should be able to tell you what is in your mouth.if you however need a second more direct opinion I would suggest seeing a doctor that specializes in the herpes virus Condition or go see your primary care physician for an exam..(best of luck)..
Do I have Oral Herpes?
I went to the dentist and he said it was nothing.These bumps are still present in my mouth. They are an off white color with no edges. Now sometimes my lips feel hot. Would a doctor be better suited to analyze my mouth? Please help me??
Could be canker sores
Hi Throwbackguy,
Are they just white or is it like a white blister with a red edge? If that's the case, they could be canker sores (which are not cold sores and are not contagious)...You get them if you're immune system is compromised. If it's just white, then it could also be thrush (yeast in the mouth)...Either way, show it to a professional and he can suggest treatment.
Oral Herpes symptoms
Hi throwbackguy,
Hard to say if you have Oral Herpes or not. I suggest you go to the pharmacy and show it to the pharmacist. He'll also have the antiviral cream you need to treat it.
