Hello
Well come to health care magic
Dear patient, although the apthous ulcers occur recurrently , cause pain and discomfort but they are a benign condition and heal spontaneously but if an ulcer is not healing for several weeks it needs a special consideration because it could be neoplastic in nature, so you consult an oral surgeon to see what the problem is
thanks
