Multiple Canker Sores

Since I was 8 or 9, I've had recurring apthous ulcers ( better known as canker sores) inside my mouth.  Usually it was one or two. A little warm salt Water Rinse and they were gone in about a week.

I'm 32 now, and I'm noticing them popping up more frequently, sometimes up to 4.

Everything I know about canker sores tells me they are not an STD. However, would the appearance of multiple canker sores indicate a possible infection, STD or otherwise?
