What Does An Ulcer On The Roof Of The Mouth Indicate?

Hi The roof of my mouth (about 1" above the teeth) has been sore for about 2 weeks. It feels like when you eat something too hot and sparsely have burned it. Any idea what that could be also my throat gets parched a few times during the day. Never used to get that. Thanks

Hello,
I had gone through your question I can understand your concern.
Oral ulcers mostly on hard palate are traumatic in nature and happen because of the hard food.
But in your case it is associated with dry mouth, oral ulcer with dry mouth are fungal infections. Fungal infections are also associated with burning sensational pain when hot, clod or spicy foods are taken.
You must apply CANDID gel which is an local anti fungal (ketokenezole) 4-5 times daily.
In case of pain relief LIGNOCANE gel must be applied 10 minutes before meals and wash your mouth then and eat.
In case the ulcer is not healing for more then three weeks consult a oral Medicine spacialist and get it evaluated. Hope my answer will help you, you can ask further if you need.

Regards
