Getting sores in your mouth all the time can simply be due to canker sores or apthous ulcers ... but sometimes it can be a pointer to a more serious underlying problem.
The patient in the video below sees her family doctor and has tests done to rule out a vitamin deficiency or a problem with the immune system. The doctor also checks to make certain that there is no connection to genetic problems or joint diseases - both of which are rare but definite links for people who get canker sores all the time.
In this example the doctor chooses to prescribe a drug called colchicine for mouth ulcer treatment - and with very good results.
