Mouth Blood Blister

I get these too. All accounts plus a test point to my being Gluten Intolerant. I don't die from eating wheat products, but I suffer consequences.

I also never used to get these prior going Gluten Free, I suppose one might speculate that something we once got from such things as wheat, we may not longer get. Thus; problems. Possible.

A short internet search turns up a few sites that describe this kind of problem, and, as it happens, it doesn't seem to be a worrisome condition to be in. Though I am sure a thorough search will possibly bring back some information stating that this condition is a sure sign that 2012 is really going to be the end of the world. The internet is a nebulous thing.

Thus, I wouldn't worry about it too much, but if it persists, head to a doctor, possibly a mouth specialist.

Thus far I have found that this kind of thing can be chalked up to a mouth trauma of some kind. Blood vessels burst without bursting the skin, thus fill the skin with blood. It clears by itself typically. This, is as far as my research found. Sometimes they hurt, sometimes they don't. Mine don't.

Mine haven't come in a long time, but I now have one. I also notice they tend to come right after eating, so some sort of allergic reaction wouldn't be surprising, though, I eat a bunch of really benign foods ... (Habits of Candida diets! HA!)

Good luck everyone.

I get them on the insides of my cheek and always thought they were from somehow biting it while chewing? :blink:

Today I have woken up with a lovely mouth blood blister (1/4") that has appeared over night. I have never had one of these so has just made me wonder if its another one of those hundereds of symptoms of celiac disease. Any ideas anyone?

I get them quit often, but I am pretty sure mine is from biting my cheek, I'll wake up with them too.

I get these all the time. They are painful, more so when they pop. The underlying sore takes a long time to heal. I'm new to this gluten-free program so I don't know what causes them. I never asked a Dr. either.

I just got an emailed response from my GI, "IBS doesn't cause mouth sores or blisters. Go see your PCP when you have another one." LOL. I guess I'm on my own with this.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
