Angina Bullosa Haemorrhagica is an alteration causing recurrent hemorrhagic blisters, which rupture easily and are located exclusively in the oropharyngeal or oral mucosa in sites particularly exposed to trauma. These lesions rupture spontaneously to form ragged, often painless, superficial erosions that heal spontaneously within 1-2 weeks without scarring. This case report describes the use of Photobiomodulation by 635nm laser, suggesting its utilization for pain reduction as well as for a faster healing process.
