Is there any connection between drinking wine and mouth ulcers? Every time I drink wine I seem to get them.

Mouth sores or ulcers is a general term used to describe cold sores, canker sores and other kinds of irritation to the inner lining of the mouth. The most typical and common precipitating factors include ill-fitting dentures or braces, sharp or broken teeth, chewing tobacco, accidental biting and certain kinds of food or drinks. Acidic foods, especially orange juice, are commonly involved in inducing or worsening oral ulcers because they cause subtle tissue damage that is more intensely felt by people with existing sores or sensitive mouth tissue. Limiting acidic foods or consuming low acid foods after high acid foods can minimize discomfort and reduce the risk of future outbreaks.
People prone to mouth sores should limit their consumption of foods that contain medium levels of acid, or take precaution measures to limit tissue damage, like following with a food or beverage that is contains low levels of acid. Medium acid fruits and vegetables include apples, apricots, mangos, nectarines, oranges, peaches, pears, plums, tomatoes, green olives and peppers. Cream, cottage cheese and yogurts have medium levels of acid, contrary to most other dairy products. Honey, pesto, mustard, mayonnaise and ketchup are also medium acid dietary items. Wine and buttermilk are medium-acid beverages.
