Mouth sore...

---

I dunno just maybe the doctor I work for. Steve I love you think you're full of knowledge.. but you can be wrong sometimes without having to beat a topic to death.

just a thought.

Not having examined FaBMX, I don't think we can diagonse his oral sore, since we're not the Senate majority leader. He most likely has either a canker sore or a fever blister. I'd guess canker, especially if he has no history of fever blisters (which he didn't state), but it's just a wild guess.

Oh and canker sores are exactly what you describe above about the body attacking tissue.. but at the same time a sore INSIDE the mouth is not always classified as a "cold sore". Usually its mark as an Oral Ulcer, whether its herpes or not.

You don't have to have a history of fever blisters to get one Steve. But since I am a medical assistant and have two children who have had a variety of illness', you and google must know more than me.

You don't have to have a history of fever blisters to get oneOf course, or no one would ever get one in the first place. It's a matter of liklihood. But if you're certain you know what FaBMX's sore is, more power to you.

In reply to: He most likely has either a canker sore or a fever blister. I'd guess canker, especially if he has no history of fever blisters (which he didn't state), but it's just a wild guess. I'm just as certain as you are my dear.

Steve I love you think you're full of knowledge.. but you can be wrong sometimes without having to beat a topic to death.just a thought.Dude, you've made 8 posts so far to this thread. Explain to me what I'm wrong about, and I'll be happy to be corrected and to learn something new. So far I'm not super impressed by your medical knowledge, so I'd be interested to know what your opinions are based on. Don't just stiffen your back. Show me something authoritative that backs up your point, and I'll shut up.In reply to:Oh and canker sores are exactly what you describe above about the body attacking tissue.. but at the same time a sore INSIDE the mouth is not always classified as a "cold sore". Usually its mark as an Oral Ulcer, whether its herpes or not.Well, no kidding. When I used the word "sore", I assumed you'd understand that an (oral) ulcer can be a "sore". So do we agree that a canker sore is not caused by a virus, while a cold sore (i.e., fever blister) is?

(re: a post a ways back)...A fever blister is a cold sore, which is caused by a herpes infection. An outbreak can be triggered by some type of stress.Then we agree that we can't really say what FaBMX's blister is. We can only guess.

So do we agree that a canker sore is not caused by a virus, while a cold sore (i.e., fever blister) is? No..I find it annoying to argue with you Steve because reguardless the facts I give you, you'll find some way to twist it around to TRY and make yourself right. So I am done with this topic with you because again reguardless what i say you'll always think you're right. /shrug But thats just who you are.

Your "facts", which are actually your opinions, aren't worth a damn unless you can point to an MD or some similiar qualification. What you don't understand is that I don't care about your ill-informed opinions; I want to know why you think what you think. In other words, point to a reference! Arguing with me is stupid. You need to either cite or argue with the authorities.Seriously, you are the most narcissistic person I've seen in this place. I-me-my is not the basis of all knowledge.________________________________________________________FamilyDoctor.org on canker soresFederal Citizen's Information Center publication on fever blisters and canker soresMedline Encyclopedia (NIH)'s definition of canker soreDo you need more help? I assume we agree that cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus.Seriously, you shouldn't care what about my opinion, and I shouldn't care about your opinion (I don't); we should just care about what the correct information is. If the doctor you work for agrees with you, then either you've misunderstood him, he is wrong, or the whole medical community is wrong.

Yikes! Didn't mean to cause any trouble.It is getting better tho I just left it alone and drank alot more water. I tryed rinsing with 'anti-diarhea' stuff today. I heard that might help. Thanks for the replies, and now you can all return to the back and fourth.

I tryed rinsing with 'anti-diarhea' stuff today. I heard that might help. That's a new one on me.

Yeah ... Me too... Something about whats in it. :confused:

Steve my facts come from the dcotors I work for. And bash me all you want babe.. you're not going to knock me down. Use your little google engine and be happy with your black and white medical information. But so you know, medical terminology is not as black and white as you think. If the medical profession was as easy as black and white, life would be a wonderful thing now wouldn't it?? Just because one deff. states "this is what a cold sore/canker is" doesn't make it 100% true all the time. Guess your google didn't tell you that??

If you think I'm going to take your word on any medical topic, you're fantisizing. Either back it up or shut the f**k up. If you don't like the Internet, I'm sure there are libraries in or around Akron.You think you know more than the NIH, etc. Now that is arrogance.

Okay Mr. Ignorant..I never cursed at you so you are truely showing your true mentality.Secondly I never said you had to take my advice, if you don't agree with it why don't you just keep your opinions to yourself. If you feel that you truely need to put your opinions on every topic and think you are truely superior.. you're the one with the problem babe, not me.>You think you know more than the NIH, etc. Now that is arrogance. Never said I did, but you are notorious for putting words in other peoples mouths.

You post wrong information, I tell you you're wrong, you tell me you're right, I tell you you're wrong, you tell me I'm wrong, I point to authoritative references that contradict what you say, and you keep blathering. Are you stupid or are you lazy? How long should I give you the benefit of the doubt?No one here is saying, "follow my advice", but if you say something stupid, and someone believes you, you might actually cause them some damage. A medical question thread is not the place to express your creative side.I don't care if people agree with my tastes. I care that people agree with facts that are shown to be correct, or they need come up with a good reason that they're not correct. "Because that's what I think" is not a good reason. I don't know what kind of scientific education you received, but it was seriously deficient.

KK Steve whatever you wish to think. You are truely the most ignorant person I have met. You are 100% judgemental and bring nothing but "I'm better than everyone" type of attitude to the table. You stick to you google babe, whatever works for ya.

And be careful before you try and judge someones education. When graduating college I graduated with a 3.9 GPA. All you have is google to back you up, sorry to say it but without it you couldn't even begin to talk circles around me academically.

Now let the topic drop already. (Though I can already guess you'll have another "witty" come back shortly)

You are truely the most ignorant person I have met.Gee, I'm flattered. At least I'm the best at something.> You are 100% judgemental and bring nothing but "I'm better than everyone" type of attitude to the table. You stick to you google babe, whatever works for ya.Given my ignorance, I usualy try to make sure I know what I'm talking about before I hit the keyboard. It's always surprising and interesting to find out what one doesn't know. What type of judgement does it take to say that 1 + 1 does not equal 3? Do you believe in the idea of objective truth, or is it all up for grabs?> And be careful before you try and judge someones education. When graduating college I graduated with a 3.9 GPA. All you have is google to back you up, sorry to say it but without it you couldn't even begin to talk circles around me academically.I don't care what kind of education you have. You don't seem to have a clue about science or its methodology. Here's some news: science doesn't hinge on what you think. You must've gone to an easy school; your opinion of yourself is way, way overinflated. I don't live and die by Google, but you have no way of knowing if I'm telling you the truth; but I can see you posting bogus stuff, and fighting to the death defending it, because you think your opinion is sacred.> Now let the topic drop already. (Though I can already guess you'll have another "witty" come back shortly)I have no problem with beating a topic to death. If you do and you're not a hypocrite...well, let's see what happens. Look in the mirror, dude.

OKay "dude".I refuse to waste anymore of my time on you, because all you can do is re-use garbage lines. Not sure how old you are, nor does it matter.. but some day you'll learn life isn't black and white.
