Tounge ulcer
Hi! 3 weeks ago my dentist removed an ulcer from under my tounge by cutting it of and sending thr biopsy to the lab,this was because I ha5 had it for over 2months.
My tounge is obviously still healing from the surgery. Yesterday I got the results from the biopsy and everything was negative so all good.
But today I see that the ulcer have come back in the same exact spot??! What could be the reason for this? Please help, what should I do?

This is an unambiguous fibroma, and needs no care. Do you have any spacing between lower teeth.

First share the biopsy report. What was the cause of the ulcer will be more or less clear by the reports only. Or again consult your dentist.
