Oral Canker Sores

Yes and no.

Cold sores are HSV-1, canker sores can be HSV-1 or they can be bacteria after an injury for example.

HSV-2 is the kind of people call genetal herpes. They are a different strain * of herpes virus.

They are both still a retrovirus and the work of a very similar way.

Or it can spread to other people and both have other complications beyond what most people are familiar, such as the spread to other parts of the body.

Wikipedia has a nice article on it, but it is rather long but not too technical.

Cold sores are herpes, canker sores are not.

Different but same. Oral lesions are latent viruses that appear under stress, weather or other factors.

If you had a wound by mouth and do something with a man (I am a woman, if a man did something down with a woman the same thing you do ,.....) spreads that trouble the region. They are different in their way of visiting or returning after infection. Those oral live alone for years without returning, the regional low can return at any time and return more often .....

They are both incurable and, fortunately, I only have the oral (dunce sores in the mouth) that occur regularly, although I'm not sure what triggers them. My son also has sores in his mouth dunce, but I told him that it is not to brush their teeth, I hope he brushes the most :-)

I also think they are classified differently if you buy them in the mouth or in your region ..... it is considered a cold sore or normal, it is called an STD.

Herpetic stomatitis is a viral infection of the mouth characterized by ulcers and inflammation. These mouth ulcers are not the same as canker sores, which are caused by a different virus.

Causes, incidence and risk factors Back to top

Herpetic stomatitis is a contagious viral disease caused by herpes virus hominis (also herpes simplex virus, HSV) and is seen mainly in young children. This problem is probably the first exhibition of a child of the herpes virus and can result in systemic illness with high fever (often higher than 104 degrees Fahrenheit), blisters, ulcers in the mouth, and inflammation of the gums.

The inside of the cheeks and tongue frequently develop ulcers 1-5 mm in diameter with a grayish-white base and a reddish perimeter. These ulcers are very painful and cause drooling, difficulty swallowing, and decreased food intake (even if the patient is hungry).

An adult family member may have a cold sore at the time the child develops herpetic stomatitis. More likely, no source of infection is discovered. The disease heals ulcers are generally healed within 10 days.
