I have canker sores on my gum line with swelled glan & cheek accompanied with eye soreness all in the same side. the eye soreness is that a concern?

Absolutely: Canker sores usually do not cause swelling of the cheek... you may have a draining abscess that is also spreading to your eye. Please see a dentist ASAP.

Canker Sores: are the most common oral lesions. Individual ulcers typically last 1-2 weeks. The aphthous ulcers are usually self-limiting. Try to keep adequate oral hygiene as possible. If concerned see your dentist after 10 days or visit today for laser immediate amelioration.
