Hello Ulcers are common in immunocompromised situations. You can alternate between Chlorhexidiene (20 days) and regular mouthwashes to prevent bacterial buildup.
Next Steps
Chronic ulcers like these generally need a biopsy. You can visit an oral surgeon near you for further opinion.

Maybe it is happening due to medications. Or some sharp food particals may cause ulcer. It can also be just an opening of salivary gland.
