Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The red spot could be because of the ulcers like ahthous ulcer or herpetic ulcer. Consult a oral physician and get it ruled out.. The aphthous ulcer can come secondary to stress. so do not take tension.
If it is aphthous ulcer you can take topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel. apply 3-4 times daily before food and topical steroid like triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% 4-5times daily after food.
Do saline gargling. If the lesion does not heal in 5-7 days then consult a oral physician and get it examined.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
