I have a small white painful sore on the gum under my tooth. Whenever I touch it with my tongue, it pains. I get temporary relief after applying mouth ulcer gel.

Local application of ulcer gels will give temporary relief only. You should visit a dentist for a proper clinical examination to identify the exact cause of your problem. The right treatment can be instituted only after a proper diagnosis has been made. Regards.
Next Steps
do not delay the treatment until the problem aggravates further.
