Accepted Answer

Palatal ulcer: How long have you had it? Perhaps it's from an abrasion from hard food? Try salt water rinses or any number of over the counter medications at a local drug store or supermarket if available. Avoid hot and spicy foods.

Accepted Answer

Doctor can evaluate: Cold sores are on or near the lips. They are caused by recurrences of herpes virus, which lives in the nerves after an initial infection, and then travel down the nerves to cause the cold sores at the skin surface from time to time.
