A member asked:
I have never gotten a canker sore under my tongue before only on my lip in front of my teeth. is this worse than others?

Ulcers: No. They are the same. Cankers or ulcers can occur anywhere on mucous membranes. That includes any part of the mouth. But, they are not worse just because of location. Although, they may hurt worse.

No: Just may be more painful when you move your tongue.
