What is Canker sore?

• Canker sores , also known as aphthous ulcers, are
  small, shallow lesions that form on the soft
  tissues in your mouth or at the base of your
  gums. In contrast to cold sores, canker sores do
  not happen on the surface of your lips and they
  are not contagious. They could be painful,
  however, and could make eating and talking
  difficult.
• Most canker sores go away on their own within a
  week or so. Check with your doctor or dentist if
  you have uncommonly large or painful canker sores
  or canker sores that do not seem to heal.
