Thanks for reply doc.
About sleep, I take plenty of sleep/ at least 8 hrs. Normally I go to office late and come late. I do brush twice daily. About vegetables I eat lots of salad iceberg, lettuce, cucumber, carrot etc daily in lunch time. Also normally at least one time we have green vegetable for meal but mostly two times. The mouth ulcer story goes from my college days i.e. 10-11 years back and still continues in month at least one time. So I started drinking water(at least 1 liter) at night and got some help to reduce this but sometimes it does come back. Due to this there is lots of bad breath and some times my teeth starts paining.

I have gone through your query , glad to read about your diet plan it is good to see you are taking healthy diet ,as you have history of recurrent Ulcer this is known as Recurrent Apthous Stomatitis (RAS).
There is nothing to be worried XXXXXXX this RAS is seen in 40 percent of patients , RAS is seen in patients which involves some factors, like:
-Nutritional deficency (Vitamin B 6, B 12, Iron , Zinc , Folic Acid ) .

For this RAS I will suggest you dont take stress, Use soft bristle brush , Use chlorhexidine mouthwash for Bad breath.
Consult your doctor and take one Multivitamin supplement containing Vitamins B complex, cobalt , zinc , Folic acid. Once in a day for one month.
Consult dentist and go for Oral prophylaxis for pain in teeth .
