Canker sores on the back of my tongue!


Question: Canker sores on the back of my tongue
I'm a college student but for my summer session, I'm living off campus and cooking myself!. I haven't been eating healthy and usually when I do that, I develop these canker sores in my mouth that are extremely painful!. Recently, I tried fixing my diet a little and it's still not helping and to make it worse, the canker sores are at the very back of my tongue, where all the nerves are!. I don't even want to eat food much anymore because it hurts to swallow and it hurts to move my tongue!. I don't know why I'm getting them so often!. Is there something wrong with me!? Is it because I haven't been taking my fish oil and vitamin C recently!? I'm getting a little scared and to exacerbate situations, I have an extremely high metabolism so if I don't eat vast amounts of food, I drop weight like crazy!. :( It took a lot of help with my boyfriend buying me a crap load of food and me stuffing myself to get to 98 pounds and now I'll lose it with the canker sore problem!. Does anyone have suggestions on what to do to get rid of them!? They really hurt to the point where it's affecting my sleep a little!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
coming from a nurse, it doesn't sound like herpes or an issue of malnutrition, what it sounds like it Strep throat, u can get white sore on your tongue,and throat!.Are u experienceing any fever,stomach upset,nausea or vomiting as these are also signs of strep!!!
The only way to get rid of it is with an antibiotic and depending on the the strain of the strp virus u may need to be on more than one type of antibiotic or even possible a steroid such as prenisone!.!.!.whatever the case may be, u should see a doctor to be diagnosed,

Good luck,
