I was eating a sarnie and suddenly I felt something weird on the right hand side of the roof of my mouth. It was a massive blood blister! It then popped and bled for ages. It has stopped now but it hurts like hell and I can't swallow! Anyone got any cures or words of advice??!xx

Go to your doctor.

Good luck.

It's not serious enough to warrant my doctor's time! I'd feel like a fraud... Just wondered if anyone had any remedies...

happens to me now & again ......usually when im starving / eating too quickly . gotta slow down ....finish your sarnie before you pop the blister is the best advice ......

try rinsing your mouth out with salt water a few times a day - just don't swallow any of the water. This won't help with the pain, should just help it heal. You might want to try bonjela for the pain as that has a local anaesthetic in it.

the roof of our mouth is really sensitive - think about when you put something hot in it - does it not go sore and blister immeidiately?  You have got a really sensitive mouth - be careful what you eat it you may have an allergy

Scarlett, I can sympathise with you.  I suffer from this at least once a week - I get them inside my cheeks, under my tongue, on my tongue, roof of my mouth.  The only thing I find helps is to burst them very carefully (otherwise they get infected and turn into ulcers) and rinse your mouth out with slightly diluted cider vinegar.  I have mentioned this to my dentist and she didn't seem concerned. I think I'm just prone to this, it's been happening for so long now. The bit I hate is when you can feel it getting bigger and bigger.....yeucchh!!!!
