I have searched quite a few times via Google for an answer to this, but no one has ever asked the exact same question, and no one has ever provided a satisfactory answer.

Maybe every two months or so, right after eating, usually on the inside of my left cheek, a blood blister or two will form. They cause absolutely no pain, and I don't realize they're there until I happen to run my tongue over them. They have a slight metallic taste to them, are smooth, and they are easily popped with a fingernail, (a home remedy I believe most people employ because they, like me, have a natural urge to pop such things, peel off skin, and so forth, when the opportunity presents itself). A small amount of blood is released, which I know because it is then on my fingertip, and by the taste, and it heels within one or two days, the very upper layers of the skin seeming to be the only ones to have been pierced and affected.

The only other time blood blisters form are when I foolishly eat pizza rolls before they have cooled, and I burn the roof of my mouth so that it swells and the top layer of skin gets blood blisters. This is a typical reaction to burning, and once this pops, the skin is either worn away or I peel it off, and the roof of my mouth is raw for the next few days.

There is none of that rawness in the cheek blisters. I had a sausage McMuffin a few minutes ago, and one normal-sized blister and a much tinier one appeared directly after. I have popped them both and, as usual, after the initial expulsion of blood, there is no further bleeding that is detectable.

I suppose a relevant detail might be that for two or three days, the gum on my lower left incisor felt raw and hurt to brush, though no visible changes had occurred to it. It went away on its own. It might also be relevant to mention that about four days ago I had a bit of pain when eating in my throat, perhaps around the middle of my neck, though that went away after a day. Cold water soothed it.

I only very rarely get cold sores or the like. I chalked the throat thing up to kissing my girlfriend, who has told me that she'd been sick a bit before.

There. That is all the relevant information as I can think it.

Sorry about the novel; I'm a writer. You can't stop my descriptions without a semi.

Thanks,

Hello Tanner

Thanks for the insight into this problem. I haven't come across any other management stategy other than ruling out any diagnosable condition that sometimes present with "Blisters and Bullae" in the mouth e.g. pemphigus vulgaris, and avoiding activities that bring them on, much like what you are doing.

Best wishes
