For about a week now i've had this canker
sore on the upper part of my mouth, and it
is showing no signs of going away. Also,
mainly just the right gland on my neck has
been swollen. I haven't felt sick for a
while now and I was just wonderin if
anyone had any thoughts on my problem.
And, is it possible to contract an std of
the throat from kissing? Thanks.

I believe you have hurt yourself there
somehow and it probably got infected.
Your " right gland" on your neck being
swollen is your right tonsil which became
such because of the infection as tonsils
are a true germ barrier. Your swelling
should reduce once your infection is gone.
And for the infection to be gone you need
to be on antibiotics. Have a germ
identification done and then an
antibiogram...It will tell you what
antibiotics to take to get rid of your
problem. Also talk to a doctor.
Good luck!

You said "for about a week now i've had
this canker sore on the upper part of my
mouth"...I thought you referred to the
palatine surface and I thought you might
have hurt yourself when eating, like when
eating toast or something hard and then it
got infected...
If I didn't understand correctly, please
explain what you meant to say by "canker
sore on the upper part of my mouth".
