Yesterday I noticed that the back of my mouth on the right side where my jaw is attached that I have a very sensitive spot. It is somewhat painful to swallow and it hurts to try and move my tongue over that spot. It feels as if the spot is like a sponge (parts are missing). It is also difficult to brush my back teeth. What can I do to make this go away or at least be less painful
Read your query, as you have sensitive painful spot this can be due to inflamation of oral mucosa due to thermal burn or due to ulceration , or may be due to drug induced , viral infection stomatitis . For this you can apply ointment like triamnicilone acetonide buccal paste on painful spot , you can take Antioxidant capsule or vitamin B complex supplements by consulting with your doctor . If you wont get relief after these measures then consult an oral surgeon for examination of spot and if needed then go for investigations Cytology of spot.
Hope this will help you. Wishing you good health.
