What do you call a mouth sore with the following descriptions: ....?!


Question: I have a bump on the top of my mouth that is painful when you press it with your tounge. When it is popped, it oozes out a disgusting mix of blood and some salty ingridient. The only way it goes away is if you drink TONS (literally) of water. It usually occurs during hot weather and may be a sign of dehydration. What do you call this?

This may be a blocked salivary gland duct, the salty ingredient may be a salivary stone, or calcium deposit that had been blocking the duct. You need to keep hydrated so the saliva can flow easily and not allow the calcium to accumulate in the duct and clog it. I would suggest that you see an Ear Nose and Throat doctor if it doesn't improve, especially if it gets bigger.
