10. Respiratory Illnesses
A number of respiratory illnesses can cause ulcers or sores to form in the oral region, including canker sores. This can be due to the illness weakening the immune system, as canker sores are known to accompany other illnesses.
In other words, when a patient is sick with a respiratory illness, canker sores are more likely to appear and can occur on the tonsils and in the throat and mouth.8Rabin, Roni Caryn. ‘What Causes Canker Sores?’ The New York Times, The New York Times, 16 Mar. 2018, www.nytimes.com/2018/03/16/well/live/what-causes-canker-sores.html.
