See a dentist: If these symptoms do not go away by themselves in a few days, you should be examined by a dentist--you could find there are ways to give you both reassurance and relief!

Likely viral : Many viral infections may do this including hsv, which is common. These are usually self-limiting. Some times we find no cause and they still go away on their own. Reaction to certain medications or new foods should be considered. Rarely can this be a herald sign for a more serious underlying or for a systemic infection. See your doctor for a close up exam.
