Canker Sores - Treatment

چکیده
Some conditions that can mimic canker sores include traumatic injury, autoimmune conditions, viral infections (such as herpes simplex and herpes zoster [shingles]), and most importantly, oral cancer. In addition, oral ulcers can be associated with a number of systemic conditions in which the oral ulcers represent only a small part of the underlying problem. A general rule of thumb recommended by health care professionals is that any ulcer that lasts for more than 10 to 14 days should be evaluated by a dentist and biopsied if necessary. Professionals trained in Oral Medicine have expertise in the diagnosis of such lesions.
