Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The itching and burning sensation could be because of the erosive lichen planus or it can be because of the apthous or herpetic ulcer.
If it is lichen planus, if it is lichen planus then you have to take topical steroids like triamcinolone acetonide (0.1%) 4-5times daily for 1 week.
You can also take topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel for the pain.
If it is herpetic ulcer, you can take topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel. apply 3-4 times daily before food.
consult a oral physician and get it ruled out.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
