What does a blister on the tongue indicate?
Patient: I have a blister in the middle of my tongue, low grade fever, about 3 days in no I can hardly swallow. Do not see any white patches just extremely red. No Tonsils, Neck is extremely sore on Nodes down into my chest where it feels heavy or tight when I try to drink something or take a deep breath. What could this be? Doctor: Hello,As per your query, there are blisters on your tongue while suffering from fever which seems mainly due to canker sore and due to viral infection. Usually, canker sore goes away on its own without any treatment in few days.I would suggest you to do warm saline rinses, start taking multivitamin supplement specially containing vitamin B12 and folic acid . If condition persists for longer period of time, then consult oral pathologist for proper evaluation.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Harry Maheshwari
