Oral sores: This requires a one on one dental consult in order to accurately diagnose your issue and suggest appropriate treatment. Any problem that lasts over two weeks warrants a dental evaluation! obviously it's not going away on its own with anything that you are doing. The sooner you see a dentist, the sooner you will feel better. Call for an appointment today.

Also it may be a case of recurrent aphthous stomatitis. Will require tto treat with antibiotics or antiviral medicine. Seek help with a dentist or an ENT doctor.
