What Is The White Painful Spot In The Mouth?

hi, recently I have been having a pain in my mouth so I checked it out and I had a white spot on the inside of my cheek. Thinking it was a canker sore I rinsed with some salt water and didn t worry about it but its been getting bigger. it have a yellowish tone to it and I think its oral thrush but im not sure. Ive never givin oral sex but I have kissed people so could it be an std or is it something else?

Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.

Stds do not spread by kissing or touching people.
It could be an apthous ulcer please see your dentist once .Meanwhile you can start vitamin b complex for fifteen days.

you must include lots of green leafy vegetables and fruits in your diet.
Milk and poultry are also good dietary sources.Lead stress free life for better recovery.
Locally you can apply dologel,that has pain relieving property.
