Suggest Medication For Mouth Ulcer At The Site Of Root Canal Performed

I had a root canal done two years ago and after that my teeth seemed to be fine. I then developed a mouh ulcer one year later on the gum, right on the point where the root canal had been done. I have now had this ulcer for over a year and it isnt clearing up! It will occasionally pus but I do not feel much pain. Is this normal?
