Can Tiny Grayish Black Painful Spot On Mouth Be Mold Infection?

Hi, my mom has a painful spot in her mouth that s been there for over a week. When I examined the spot more closely (near the back of the mouth, very hard to see), i noticed a tiny grayish black mark. Is it a mold infection, or something else? It hurts her a lot.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,
I would suggest you get her checkup done this could be due to either bacterial or viral infection. Are there any other symptoms associated?
Are there lesions on other sites on her body.
Take lukewarm saline rinses, antiseptic mouthwash gargles.

Take care!
