Have A Small Sore Part In The Right Side Of The Mouth

I have a small sore on the right side of my mouth on the soft pallet that won t heal. It is small with a white center and swells after eating just about anything. i can pop the blister with my thumb, gargle salt water and it will go down to the point that I don t notice it until i eat again.

Hello, Thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.

The type of sore you are mentioning that it had a white center also it looks that it is a sinus opening of some upper back infected tooth.

And when you eat something there is food lodgement in that tooth which leads to the progress of the infection in that sinus area, that is why the blister pops.
Better that once you should visit a dentist and get it completely examined.

Hope it will help you.
