Can extreme stress cause 5 month old very painful tongue ulcer.not increasing in size.part of it heals while it exrends(kind of like moving sideways)?

Tongue ulcer: An aphthous ulcer that is lasting this long should be looked at by a dentist. Many feel stress can cause aphthous ulcers to come out more frequently, but this is too long for one to last, if it is an ulcer.
