A persistent ulcer in the mouth is not good, better you immediately consult with dentist. Because ulcers can be due to multiple reasons and specific location in your mouth may be associated with some underlying nutritional deficiencies. As it is ulcer it's gonna be worsened while you are eating spicy or hot, food or drinks.
