Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
You may be having dialated vein, blocked duct or enlarged salivary gland.
As you are having apthous ulcer or canker sore it may be due to injury by the sharp tooth, spicy food or due to stress.
I would suggest you
1. Maintain good oral hygiene
2. Apply topical anaesthetic agents over the sore.
3.Take Vit B complex
4. Use chlorhexidine mouth gargel
5. Oral NSAIDs.
Thank you.
