Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might be suffering from oral lichen planus.
It is an autoimmune condition and needs treatment with steroids.
Apply triamcinolone oral paste.
This will give you good relief.
If it persists, you can go for a biopsy to ascertain the cause.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
