That does sound like there’s some inflammation going on. It sucks having a rare condition most people will never encounter and, as a result, don’t believe is real. Personally I’ve suffered aphthous ulcers in my mouth my whole life, they’re very painful and make it hard to eat or drink. My friends in highschool made fun of me at lunch because they didn’t understand how much it hurts. I found some random advice online about 15 years ago, switched toothpaste to a brand without Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate, and BAM: many fewer ulcers, massive improvement to my quality of life! So, I like to think I understand your plight a bit more than some other commenters here. Good luck!
