[|Human|] Hello. My name is Michelle, and I have some small red bumps on my soft palate. They are tender, and it hurts when I drink hot liquids, eat hard foods, and sometimes when I swallow. I dont think it is strep, but Im worried that it could be something worse. I am still recovering from an upper respiratory complications... stuffy nose, congestion, things like that. Any ideas about what could be going on? Im worried that it could be something much worse... and my worst fear is that it is an std or something like that.... HELP please!
[|AI|]  Hello there, Appearance of red bumps on the oral mucosa of soft palate, tenderness and sensitivity to hot and cold indicates inflammation.  It may be caused due to several reasons like deficiency or certain vitamins especially vitamin B12 and vitamin C. Maintain good oral hygiene by practicing regular mouth rinsing with lukewarm saline water or antiseptic mouthwash like Betadine or chlorhexidine.  Start with multivitamin supplements for 7 to 10 days and vitamin C lozenges will help in resolving the problem.  Avoid alcohol, carbonated Chat Doctor.  Apply oral antiseptic, analgesic ointments like denote or mucosal topically over the affected area I hope this helps, take care.
