Hi..
Thanks for the query.

As per your complain it seems that you are suffering from Apthous Stomatitis leading to formation of apthous ulcers and the cause of it can be: 1.Deficiency of iron and Vitamin B12.
2.Acid reflux.
3.Stress
4.Allergic reaction to any food or medicine.
5.Excess intake of our foods, etc..

I would suggest you to start taking a multivitamin tablet daily for 1 month.
In case if there is pain you can gargle with a numbing mouthwash as well as you can take Ibuprofen to reduce inflammation and pain..

Avoid hot and spicy food..
Do warm saline gargles..
Drink plenty of water and maintain a good oral hygiene..
In case of no improvement in a week consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
Dr.Honey Arora.
