    Hi. First off, how long has the ulcer been there for? If it's only been a short time (like a week) leave it for another week or two but if it persists more than that i would just get it checked out. Some mouth cancers can look like an ulcer. If you can, it's best to see a dentist as they are more specialised in this area than doctors. But don't freak out. It doesn't mean it's anything sinister.
