Hello!Thank you for posting in HCM.
You did not mention if you smoke or have any other habits.This can be a candidal infection as you say it comes and goes. You did not mention your age,general health status and if you suffer diabetes.
Check if you are low on immunity.
This can also be a oral lesion. However, you need a clinical examination with your dentist for definitive diagnosis.
Maintain a good oral hygiene routine.Gargle warm saline thrice daily.Have a stress free life style.Please see a oral pathologist immediately for they can help you with a biopsy.

Hope this helps.
