What Causes A Pink Ringworm Like Patch Inside The Mouth ?

Presently I have a pink ringworm like patch on the inside of my cheek just by my lower jaw, it's painless and about a quarter of an inch in diameter. I've had it for just over a week now after using antibiotics and eating a fruit that looks like it has some kind of milk paste in the skin. What do u thing the cause might be? Thnks
