hellooo...read through your query...and accordingly i feel that it can be due to ulceration due to trauma or due to stress and tension...but nothing to be worried...first and foremost is the oral hygiene...brush twice daily..do tongue scraping...do chlorhexidine mouthrinse..drink lots and lots of water...have multivitamin tablets...and also have nice leafy vegetables...follow this for few weeks..if still it doesnt resolve meet dentist and get it treated based on the clinical presentation....besides all these reduce stress and tension ...be cool and happy..happy mind and stressfree life can resolve any probs...hope ur benefitted something from this reply..have a healthy day!!!
