Mouth ulcers can have causes that aren't due to underlying disease. Examples include canker sores, burns, biting the tongue or cheeks, or eating acidic foods such as sour sweets and pineapple. It can be canker sore or cold sores (also called fever blisters) or because of tobacco chewing or disease of gums etc. Avoid hot beverages and foods as well as salty, spicy, and citrus-based foods. Allowing ice chips to melt over the ulcers or rinsing your mouth with salt water or baking soda and water may help to lessen pain. Avoiding spicy, acidic and abrasive foods may also help.
