The appearance of the problem doesn't signify that it is an ulcer. A detailed examination by an Oral Medicine expert is important. U may even Practo Consult in detail

The ulcer can occur due to many reasons.. it's good if you don't consume tobacco.. the very common reason for this can be a sharp tooth edge which must be present adjacent to it..
