Suggest Treatment For Canker Sores With Swelling In Cheek And Lips

I have been getting canker sores for four weeks. One will go away and then some more appear. Now I also have a swelling inside the cheek right along the right upper lip. This started a few days ago and it will go down and then come back. Not sure how to treat this

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The recurrent ulcers can be a recurrrent aphthous ulcers, and the swelling can be secondary to inflammation because of the ulcers. Nothing to be panic, Lead a stress free life, because stress aggravates these ulcer fomation. If i am your treating doctor, i would have suggested you to take topical anesthetic and analgesics like lignocaine and choline salicylate gel and topical steroid like triamcinolone acetonide. If the lesion does not heal in 5 days consult a oral physician and get it evaluated.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
