Brief Answer:
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.
Dr. Rohit
