What Causes Series Of White Sore Bumps Around The Tongue And Ridge Of Mouth?

I had a white sore spot appear at the base of the frenulum under my tongue, which then became a series of bumps, that have now created sort of ridge on the floor of my mouth just behind my lower teeth. I only drink a little wine once in a while and have never smoked. Is it anything I should be concerned about? A nurse practitioner said a canker sore, but I ve had enough canker sores to know this isn t one.

Hello,

The white lesions that you are describing could be due to fungal infection. I would recommend you to see a dermatologist in person for the same and get yourself treated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
