      I had sores in my mouth but the doctor says it’s canker sores they go away and come back. I don’t have sores on the outside of my mouth but sometimes it itch and tingle

    HSV2 rarely breaks out orally at all and herpes typically does not affect the tongue, but rather the hard tissues of the mouth, and much more usually, the outside lip area. Canker sores are not uncommon on the tongue, though.
