Trauma in Hard pallet in mouth
Dear Doctor,
Something pricked the inside of my mouth on July 2nd. Three days later, it turned into a wound-like sore. Even now, five days later, it hasn't healed. It hurts when I eat or press against it with my tongue, though there is no pain or bleeding otherwise. Please suggest a treatment; I am worried.

It's a wound that's already healing.
Try avoiding eating Spicy, Hot or too Cold foods and drinks.
If you smoke on regular basis, avoid for a few days as it interferes with healing.
Next Steps
You can start using Tab. Vitamin-C to help the healing.
If it doesn't get better, try uploading another picture after 5-7 days and we can review to prescribe another medication, if needed.

From the history and the photographs, this appears most consistent with a small traumatic ulcer which can ve possibly following injury from a sharp food particle. Such ulcers are usually painful on contact and often heal within 7–14 days. However, a definite diagnosis cannot be confirmed from photographs alone.
Next Steps
Topical ointment for ulcer
Mouthwash
Betadine gargles after meal
Please arrange an in-person examination by an ENT surgeon if ulcer not heal after 2 week
