The roof of my mouth, the rugae to be exact, has been hurting and feels swollen for abouth three months. I went to the dentist when it first started to feel weird and he said that was normal, but now it s been persistant for awhile. I also been very tired and I am beginning to worry! Please help!
Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM. It can be possible that the tooth in front of the mouth can be infected, because of which the infection is spreading to the palate, rugae area. So you should get an x-ray done of that area which will show the infection. Hope it will help you.
