Suggest Remedy For Sores In Mouth Roof

What started as a PAINFUL, hard, almond-sized "sore" on the roof of my mouth turned non-painful and puffy-soft to the touch of my tongue. However, at this point numbness accompanied this "area" which has been present for about three weeks. A visit to urgent care the first week revealed nothing and no meds. The doctor said it looked as if I ate something hot and burned the area. But that hasn't been the case. No discoloration of note.
