No: No. Don't get red itchy bumps on roof of mouth from gingivitis. Although the same disorder might be affecting both areas. See oral surgeon for exam.

Any quality Dentist can evaluate this phenomenon, not just an oral surgeon.

See a dentist: you might start by improving your oral hygiene with daily flushing and frequent brushing

I started with a cold sore and now have many more all over my mouth. I also have red bumps on the back of my tongue and throat. My gums are inflamed and bleed when I brush my teeth, and seem to be cut up. Is that a side effect of herpes too?
