(Yes..Yet another post by me)

Ok, on friday i was looking at my tounge and relised that there was a red spot just to the right side ofit, i thought it may just be a cut and would go by itself, now (2days later) i have realised that it has like cut open and the centre is like a whitish colour..Is this anything to worry about? Or could it just be some ind of cold sore?

Thanks in advance x

Dear Stella Smiler

Re: Young worries Wink
The guidance says:1. A sore or ulcer in the mouth that does not heal within three weeks :sigh: ............ and that includes the tongue. :lol:

It is okay to ask questions; it helps avoid problems later.
Happy Halloweeen! :yikes:
