Possible Mouth Herpes????
Just recenly got little bumps on my tongue like white irritations. They look like swollen taste buds. They are not much larger but tend to hurt a bit. What could it be? Also the roof of my mouth and my inner cheeks have felt kinda rough? Is it herpes?

Little white sores on tongue
It could be a lot of things: thrush, or too much sour candy, too hot of drink, too much salsa, etc. It sounds like you may have just overacted your taste buds on something. My friend had thrush years ago and when she stuck out her tongue it was all white and bumby, she said she had "gooey" in her throat too. (PS: thrush is a yeast infection in the mouth, treatable with antibiotics).
I would get it checked by a doctor. It could just be nothing serious. If it is something serious you may just need some special mouthwash and some antibiotics.
I had little lacerations all over the inside of my mouth about 8 years ago, I asked my dentist (since I had an apointment for cleaning while this weird "breakout" was hapening), he looked, asked if I changed toothpaste or mouthwash, I said yeah, I had been over at a freinds house alot and they used Colgate (I am a Crest Kid). Turns out it was just an allergic reaction to Colgate. I stopped using Colgate (brought my own tube of Crest paste over after that) and have not had the problem since (also have not used anything except Crest since then). If you have changed oral hygiene products you may want to switch back to your previous brand and see if that helps.
Hope this helps

I get cold sores
I get cold sores out side my mouth, about one outbreak. they are not ugly like the pictures i have seen. I hope its not herpes, because I have never done anything bad. I am really scared because i dont want to pass it to someone i care. I am too scared to go to the doctor. What should i do?
Scared of oral
Well.. there are a few things I would suggest.
1. Herpes does not happen to "bad" people. You can catch oral herpes from sharing food/drinks. Babies catch oral herpes from great grandma giving them a kiss. So you may want to alter your opinion on who infected people are. Especially when writting to a site that infected people attend for advice (your comment can be seen as hurtful).
2. See a doctor. Virgins and non-virgins alike get oral, like I said in #1 it is common. The dr can let you know for sure.
3. Don't always trust the pictures you see of diseases. I have never had an oral or genital leasion look like those "national geographic" type horror breakouts they seem to always photograph. Oral herpes looks like a freaky lip pimple: where a lip pimple is a bump with a head on it, and usually "zit sized", herpes will be a bump with a lot of little bumps on top of it. It can be as big as half your lip or as small as a lip zit. It hurts about as bad and if you try to pop herpes it will REALLY hurt, then get bigger (and no white oozy stuff will come out like with a zit). Also, after a few days herpes will get really squishy.

If it is a form of herpes it
If it is a form of herpes it would be oral herpes which also would not have appeared that fast. If it is herpes AKA cold sore you may have had it since you were a child as do a large number of the population.
