Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Small ulcers with adequate care can heal on its own. However, since your doctor recommended surgery, it is likely that the ulcer will not heal on itself. So please be advised to follow up with your doctor as scheduled for surgical debridment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
