hello there,
welcome to HCM,

Ulcers seen on oral mucosa can be due to several reasons such as injury to the mucosa , stress induced ulcers, deficiency of certain water soluble vitamins like B and vitamin C , rarely can be bacterial or fungal in nature.
i would advise you to start with a course of multivitamins or antioxidants tablets for 15 days .
local application of an antiseptic analgesic oral gel will help in healing.
Mouth gargling with antiseptic oral rinse gives soothing effect to the throat.
Avoid smoking ,hot and spicy food , carbonated drinks for a week.
if the symptoms do not subside in 7 days you need to consult a physician for examination and tests.

take care.
