Have An Ulcer On The Roof Of My Mouth. Took Antibiotics, Almost Vanished. When Stopped, Reappeared. Feel Sinus Pressure. Treatment?

I have an ulcer on the roof of my mouth whichs bleeds somewhat profusely when I expectorate after brushing my teeth. My dentist thought canker on a blood vessel or the emergence of a bony protrusion . I took antibiotics and it appeared to be almost gone in a week. Stopped the antibiotics, it came back. Prior to its coming back though, I had sinus pressure on my right side and a minor headache. It feels as if my sinus is draining through the roof of my mouth. Once the bleeding started, there was no more pressure. Any ideas?

post nasal drip of sinuses can cause this
bleeding is also sign of sinusitis
and chronic post nasa drip can cuse ulcers in roof of mouth

Dear friend.

Thanks for sharing your concern.

your present symptoms could be due to sinus infection.please get an x ray (water`s view done).It usually involves the roof of mouth.

Also the present antibiotics needs to be changed.

After clinical evaluation and radiographs exact diagnosis can be made.

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

Take care.
