Hi..
Thanks for the query..

It looks like a Major Apthae that is a large variant of the regular canker sores..

If it is not getting better, you can start applying steroid ointment over it like 0.1% Triamcinolone Acetonide over it..
Take Vitamin B complex and lysine supplements.
Do cool compresses over it..
A short course of Steroid can also be advised..
Do cool compresses over it..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
