recently, i have been noticing these blood blisters like things on the inside linings of my mouth. there are not a lot but i dont know what they are so i am concerned. i get them very few weeks it seems. they dont hurt. i have been just squeezing them until they pop and a little blood comes out. after i do that, they go away in a few days or so. needlessly to say i want to know what they are. i would appreciate it a lot. hopefully they are not serious. thanks.

ok well all that website did was raise my blood pressure and scare me. i was told that oral herpes hardly ever affects the inside of the mouth. there is no tingling or anything before these things pop up. they just appear. i also think herpes sores would hurt. these dont hurt at all. herpes blisters usually hurt and clear liquid in them. plus i think this appears too often for it to be herpes anyways. they mostly seem to be in the back of my mouth around where the teeth are. so who knows...i would like a doctors own response instead of a website which generalizes all things. now i'm even more worried than i was before.

pb1322, calm down there is no need to get all upset and bent out of shape...We don't have all the answers nor do we ask all the questions, remember, you asked us..Some of us may have had what you have then again some of us haven't. The bottom line to it all is--get to a doctor. Have it checked out. Come back and tell us so we can perhaps help another who has this or something like it..We all try to help one another on here, not hurt, or scare you...Whatever you do,,seek some professional help in this....Vicki Lynn

pb1322, as Vicki says we don't have all the answers we have this illness and we ourselfs are learing about it as we go. It effects us all in different ways. I don't think you are fair asking our advice then throwing it back in our face when we try to help. We have all been where you are now but hopefully you will not be as we are now after you have visited your doctor. Dr J as he says gives advice not diognosis and I for one can confirm this is done because he cares. he is a professional and has no need to spend time on this site helping us but he does.

Lets not forget that this site is for the Sufferers of M & N to discuss between us ways of coping with this deadful Cancer NOT a self advice? cure or scraremnger faciltity. I must strongly agree with Maurice but for the kindness and Humilly given by Dy Dr Jodhie (and Krishan) we would be alot worse of today . Hope we can between us help anyone in need paul |

If you have blood blisters in your mouth, check your platelet count! My husband, 31 years old, had unexplained bruises on his body & blood blisters in his mouth. After a doctor's visit, he was diagnosed with ITP - a disorder which attacks the platelets. After a brief hospital visit, with platelet transfusions, gammaglobulin, and prednisone, the blood blisters have disappeared and the bruises are slowly fading. Now, he has to take prednisone for a couple of months, and then we'll go from there. Your condition may be something else, but look into your platelet count.

I have had a couple of the blood blisters in my mouth also for about the last 3 months (that I have noticed at least). I honestly think that smoking maybe affecting it if anyone else here having the problem smokes, I noticed when I smoke that, that side of my cheek has a numb tingly feeling that started up around the time of the blood blisters. It's not herpes, I can tell you that for sure. If anyone has been to a doctor for the same condition here please post up the doctor's findings. No health insurance means second-hand doctor's information is better than none.

Hello Stelmate
The commonest cause of little blood bisters in the inner cheek is trauma caused by nipping it while clenching. Learn to keep your teeth apart all the time (unless eating, even then there is food between them!). Your cheek is reacting to the irritant effect of smoke (which if it got into your eyes would make them water!). So please stop smoking, it is the best thing you could do to improve your health (in addition to walking for exercise). While we can't predict our future health, we can influence the odds by avoiding risky life styles.

I have noticed a sudden appearance of a blood blister of the size of a dime at the side of my mouth. I do not smoke and is healthy overall. I had it burst but it did not hurt at all. This is the first I have ever had a blister like this. Does anyone know what causes it or if it requires medical treatment?

Good afternoon Cheeky,
I'm sorry that no one came back to you,your question seemed to get lost in another posting. It is difficult to say what the blister could be but to be safe I think you should see your doctor.What is the weather like in Poland at the moment Cold? Keep Smiling John |

Hello Cheeky
Angina bullosa haemorrhagica is a benign phenomenon that is characterized by the sudden appearance of a blood blister on the oral mucosa in the absence of an identifiable cause or systemic disorder; local trauma has been suggested to be the most likely contributory factor. Blood filled blisters are produced in places prone to trauma (e.g. hard palate, cheek). It is thought to be caused due to fragility of the mucosal vessels. Some authors suggest mild trauma as the causative agent to break the epithelial–connective-tissue junction, causing bleeding of superficial capillaries and resulting in the formation of a subepithelial hemorrhagic bullae. No treatment is required. The lesions may be confused with other more serious disorders (eg, mucous membrane pemphigoid, epidermolysis bullosa, linear IgA, dermatitis herpetiformis); however, the isolated nature, rapid healing, and rare recurrence of ABH blisters generally are sufficient findings to rule out the previously mentioned conditions. The lesions maybe indistinguishable from blood blisters related to thrombocytopenia; however, blood tests and the absence of areas of ecchymosis, epistaxis, or gingival bleeding are helpful signs to rule it out. Hope that helps. Let us know what your doctor says.

After many trips to the internists, ent's, dermatologist, dentist and oral surgeon, I finally got a diagnosis for the blood blisters in my mouth and throat. I had 3 biopsis, and an oral pathologist said it is angina bullosa hemorrhagica. They don't know the cause, or treatment other than steroids. It's rare and supposedly not deadly. I need some relief. My mouth and throat stay sore. I can't eat or drink anything acidic, crunchy like chips or crackers, and the act of chewing is uncomfortable. HELP!!!
