I've been plagued by canker sores since I was a kid. Whether they're stress induced or a form of herpes has been a heated debate between my wife and I for quite some time but for as long as I can tell I've gotten them when I've been stressed.
As expected, after my recent stress at work I have acquired a few lovely new sores. They're usually no big deal but this time they're right in the corner of my mouth near my lips. This still wouldn't be a big deal but I swear back in college I had a nasty one very near this location that seemed to last for weeks and when it was finally over I lost the ability to pick up that corner of my mouth when I smile. I guess I could have always had a crooked smile but I didn't seem to notice it until after I had that gnarly sore.
I'm hoping I will make a full recovery from this round of sores and not end up looking like a stroke victim or Katie Holmes.
