Check the duration of the ulcer. Any ulcer in the mouth should heal within two weeks. If your ulcer has been there for longer than that, contact a dentist or an Oral Medicine specialist.
Next Steps
If the ulcers are recurrent, they could be stress ulcers and can be managed by applying a gel such as dologel.
