Medication: Depending on what is causing that sore will determine what medication you need. And to get that medication you will need a prescription, which means a local doctor will need to see you. Your lesion cannot be diagnosed over the internet and that is why you need to make an appointment. Feel better soon...

Psychic powers?: As you can guess, we can't see the sore and therefore can't diagnose what you have. Since we can't diagnose what you have, we can't tell you how to treat the sore. You will need to see a dentist or physician in order to help you.
