A member asked:
Can i kiss if i have a mouth ulcer?

Kiss with ulcer: I would prefer you don't. Chances are, you have a cold sore virus, typically herpes simplex i, which you can pass on to someone else. This will heal, so be patient.

I hope not: Since you do not know the source of the ulcer it is always wise to avoid oral contact until it is healed and safe.
