I started humira 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I felt a small non painful bump on the roof of my mouth. I drug my finger over it and it seemed to “ chase” to the side a bit. Now there are more in the new area and it is sore, through not terribly painful,all the way back to the soft palate. I’ve had fever blisters inbunusual places before like inside the nose and have been reading about fever blisters on the roof of the mouth. Can’t find any pictures of them. I hate taking drugs but my arthritis ( presumably psoriatic) has been increasing so much I’m willing to give the humira a good go. Anyone else have issues like these? Also I’m wondering if the crestor I’m on could be what is exacerbating the arthritis. Comments anyone?

You know that you need to ask a medical professional! Give them a ring now.

As Oldtimer suggests...always good to check out. I have had blisters in my mouth when on various dmards. I think the meds we take can often cause oral issues.

That doesn't sound friendly. Time for professional advice, I reckon. Any sort of swellings in the mouth/throat needs investigating sooner rather than later. Please let us know how you get on. Hugs
