Hi sir......
The ulcer may be due to wisdom tooth which pushes sideways out of gums and causes rubbing inside the cheeks developing ulcers.. The wisdom tooth also erupts sometimes partially covering the part of gum tissue...and the space underneath the gum flap is accumalated woth food debris and it is quite difficult to clean which leads to infection and ulcer near wisdom teeth
Next Steps
Get X_ray of wisdom tooth done.....kindly visit nearby dentist for futhur consultation and treatment...
