What Causes Red Patches Near The Molar And Inside Of The Lips?

Hello, I felt a bit of soreness at the back of my mouth last night and this morning awoke to find a red patch on the back left side by my moller, it does not hurt to swallow but is tender when I touch my tongue to it, as well it looks like at the front of my mouth that I have bit the upper and lower insides of the right side of my lips, I have been told I grind my teeth so I am assuming this caused those issues, any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the red patch could be a traumatic ulcer secondary to biting the cheek by your sharp teeth. you can take a topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel 3-4times daily for 5 days. if the lesion doesnt heal in 5 days consult a oral physician. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
