Hi, my Glossopalatine arch has been really red for about a week, and it is rather sore. I ve been very paranoid, becasue my roommate has mono, and although I have been very careful about using the same dishes since she got diagnosed, before her diagnosis we had shared dishes. I ve read that mono is very contagious. Is redness in the glossaopalatine arch an early symptom of mono? What can I do to treat this redness?
