Hi,
Thanks for asking the query,


This could be an infection a bacterial and viral.
Take a course of tab amoxicillin TDS, tab aceclofenac TDS for three to five days.
Apply hexigel oral ointment topically over the affected area.
At home take lukewarm saline rinses and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Avoid spicy, hot foodstuffs.
Take multivitamin suplements.

Take care!
