Since fee weeks i see this are which is encircled is getting hurt on and off. I mean sometimes i feel a tingling feeling like ulcer has come up or feels like i have bitten that area., that kind of tingling when it gets touched with the teeth. Then it reduces and comes back again in a few days or so. What is this? Some kind of infection? If i see it on mirror hardly anything is visible, but when i rub that area on my teeth it feels as if there is some growth(like ulcer) there. Pls help. Is this vitamin deficiency?

If you have a persistent tingling sensation and discomfort in a specific area of your mouth, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional or dentist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. They will be able to assess your specific symptoms and provide appropriate guidance. While it's difficult to determine the exact cause without a thorough examination, there are a few possibilities that could explain your symptoms: Mouth Ulcer: Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, can cause tingling sensations and discomfort. They are typically small, shallow sores that can appear on the inside of the mouth, including the gums, tongue, or cheeks. Irritation or Trauma: It's possible that the tingling sensation and discomfort are related to irritation or trauma to the area, such as accidental biting or rubbing against a sharp edge of a tooth or dental appliance. Vitamin Deficiency: In some cases, deficiencies in certain vitamins, such as vitamin B12, folate, or iron, can contribute to mouth ulcers or oral discomfort. However, a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional is necessary to determine if a vitamin deficiency is a contributing factor.
