Hi I Am 41 Years Old Non Smoker Or Drinker

Nothing to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi, first of all, thank you for approaching us with your query.
I read through your query and I must say that nothing to be worried in this case. I couldn't find any pictures uploaded here. Please try to reupload it again perhaps.
However, reading through your symptoms, doesn't seem to be malignant. It might be some traumatic ulcer caused during brushing or while eating some small sharp food particles scratching on the gums causing ulcer. Please do warm salt water gargle and also have lots of green leafy vegetables. Also have citrus fruits (like oranges, gooseberries, etc). Drink lots of water.
These help in fast healing. If still after a week or so it's still present will see for investigations. At this stage, I feel you should follow the above-mentioned steps. Stay calm and nothing to be afraid of. It should heal.
Thank you and have a healthy day.

Detailed Answer:
Hiii thank you for the follow up query. I read through the reply.I must say that its an aphthous ulcer. It will be healing in few days time. It must have been due to stress. The cancerous ulcer will be growing in size very fast and also the borders wont be looking like this. Anyways good you took a biposy for a safer side. Please have good citrus fruits like oranges, guava etc. Have green leafy vegetables and lots of water. Take vitamin bcomplex tablets. Do chlorhex mouthrinse. Do warm salt water gargle.You can apply dologel before having food so that it wont cause burning sensation. Besides these try to reduce stress by meditation, yoga , music or something which is soothening for your mind. One of major causes for aphthous ulcer is stress. Mind plays a major role in healing. Calm and happy mind is best solution for these condition. Hope you understood what I meant. Please do rate my answering so that I can improve in future. Thankyou and have a healthy day. Dr Rohit
