Hello. How long has your ulcer been present? Did you have it for the first time or have you had it many times? Ulcers can be aphtheria, mucosal lesions caused by teeth or hard foods. In some cases, testing is needed to determine the exact cause. You should go to the hospital early for an accurate diagnosis and timely treatment.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec.com website. Best regards.
