Canker Sores (Aphthous Ulcers). Common canker sores (known medically as aphthous ulcers) are often confused with the cold sores of HSV-1. Canker sores frequently crop up singly or in groups on the inside of the mouth or on or under the tongue. They are usually white or grayish crater-like ulcers with a sharp edge and a red rim. They usually heal in 2 weeks without treatment.
