White spot inside mouth?!


Question: White spot inside mouth.?
Well I have this spot inside my mouth which is white, I only noticed it a couple of days ago, I've had similar things in the past which my Doctor and Oral Surgeon have dismissed, I'm 17 years old and I'm a light smoker, I also chew my cheeks often..

It's just a little circular dot inside my mouth, what could this be.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Sounds to me very much like a mere mouth ulcer, which are small and white and usually appear on both the tongue and the inside of your mouth, i say mere because ulcers are very common and unsuspecting, thus why your Doc' and Oral Surgeon dismissed it/them.... You get them when you're a little run down, but are cleared up easily enough by using a good mouth wash and eating a diet rich in vitamins, especially vitamin c....Health Question & Answer

Is it moveable.? In a sense that you can push it with your tongue, or finger, and it moves with the skin, or if you pull the skin, it's clearly not attached.?

If it moves with the skin, it's most likley an ulcer.. They're quite common.. They're tiny infections of the skin (flesh in this case, inside your cheek).. They quite often go away over a period of time, just try and leave it alone.. If it starts to leak (they contain puss), rinse your mouth out thoroughly and if it gets worse (bigger, and starts to get painful) I suggest you go to a doctor, but genrally, they stay small and inavasive and you can leave them be..Health Question & Answer

omg i have the same problem sometimes.. i kept thinking it was strep but doc said it was a bacterial infection because i have bad allergies.. but my throat hurt soo bad so after i persisted he gave me amoxil or something like it and it was gone in 3 days.. i smoke and bite my cheeks too how weird.. doc told me to quit smoking cause smokin lowers immunity.. but i havent been able to yet.. so dont fret.. just try and gargle mouth was and drink lots water and good stuff and your bosy will do the rest..Health Question & Answer

Could be an ulcer if its painful, if not it's nothing big, I've had them before and before I could remember to complain about them they had dissapeared :D Ask your dentist for the proper name for them if you're still unsure but if they've dismissed it i doubt they're serious.. :) xHealth Question & Answer
