What is a canker sore???????????

I just googled them and it said that they are painful. I have 2 line like sores on each side of my mouth. Kind of like when you scratch your arm or something and it leaves a line that slightly rises. I bite the side of my cheeks so I don't know it that causes it. But would these be considered canker sores? I've always got sores in the past. In my mouth or on the corner of my mouth.

I got nauseaus again today. It was brief and it went away. I still made me nervous. I'm thinking about testing this week. Tuesday will mark the 6th week, but I'm still so nervous.

Any help about the canker sores are appreciated. I also have hemroids, but once again, I've always had hemroids so I don't know.

Protected vaginal sex, with a latex and no broken condom it's safe sex.
Safe sex=no risk.

Move on.

If in your mind you think that you've catch hiv, get test at 6 week, and see your negative result.

no, I was asking in regards to HIV symptoms. What I have in my mouth doesn't hurt or cause discomfort for the moment.

I had protected vag. sex, and have been told I wasn't at risk, but my mind and body disagree.
