It could be from over use of tobacco (leukoplakia) or ill-fitting dentures. Also, fungal infections such as Candidiasis can cause redness. Stress and allergies can cause sorenes including canker sores.

While not necessarily considered an allergic reaction it could be a reaction of medications taken together. Also if patient is taking an antibiotic for a viral infection it could be a result of the "infection" coming out. Ask your physician about a prescription for "magic mouthwash".

Rashes in the mouth are often called "thrush" and are caused by a fungus that thrives in warm, moist places. Visit your doctor for an oral rinse.
