There couldn’t be a worse morning when you get up with a bad taste in the mouth, caused by canker sores.
Canker sores are mouth ulcers that are painful, but not contagious. Simply put, they are small crater-like ulcers with a yellow or white center. Usually, they heal within a couple of weeks. Cankers sores are mostly accompanied by a tingling or burning sensation around the affected area.
It is believed that they are more common in women than in men. Unlike cold sores, they are not caused by the herpes simplex virus.
But causes, there are many. For instance,
mouth trauma or accidental cheek bites
consumption of acidic or spicy foods
emotional stress
food allergies and sensitivities
nutritional deficiencies
low immunity
inflammatory bowel diseases
Celiac disease
Behcet’s disease
bacteria responsible for peptic ulcers
hormonal changes, especially at the onset of menstrual cycles
and genetic predisposition…
