for a couple days now I have 2 canker sores side by side on the bottom inside on my lip. And I now have a canker sore on my actual gum under one of my tooth. I have a headache all day, and I feel like phelm is stuck in my throat.

What can all this be. Im nervous. Please help. Thanks.

Lol maybe I need to check before I comment. I didn't realize she had other posts and oral sex was the incident. No not related at all because there was no risk to begin with.

Related to HIV? No not likely.

Stuffiness, runny nose, are more indicative of an upper respiratory infection, sinus problems, or even simple allergies. I don't know where you live, but this is winter turning into spring, prime time for these things to pop up. Dry mouth, throat, headache, can all be related to above mentioned things, and are too non-specific to link it to HIV. Not related.

You state in the other forums that your risk was oral sex. HIV is not transmitted by oral sex. See your dentist if you are concerned about your canker sores.
