Outbreak: Please contact your local Dental Society for a list of specialists I Oral Medicine or Oral Pathology, See the specialist when the ulcers become active. Or register as a patient at a Un diversity Dental School to be evaluated I their Oral Medicine department. Stop trying to treat yourself with over the counter preparations. Once properly diagnosed you can be properly treated.
