Hiya ladies I am currently 6 months pregnant and I have the worst canker sores I’ve ever had !!!
Inside my bottom lip i have two great whopping big ones. I went to my doctor and she said that they come due to stress or bad toothpaste.

I’m a very stressy person anyone add the fact I am stressing being pregnancy worried about my baby etc.

Has anyone had this problem and how did you solve it? The doctor said some salvon but no luck

I get really bad ones. Got two big ones just now. Last year I had a huge one right where my tonsils used to be. I started using Sensodyne toothpaste as apparently it doesn’t have same ingredients as other toothpastes which really can make mouth ulcers more likely to occur. I also explained to nurse how bad it was and she prescribed numbing spray so I could eat. I can’t remember what it was called but it was excellent. Can you suggest that if you call the GP again? Much sympathy, they are horrible!
