Hello,
The multiple ulcers could be because of the herpetic infection. Since the ulcers are not responding to the topical steroids like Kenacort, you can take topical anesthetic and analgesic like Anabel gel. You can also take systemic antiviral drugs like acyclovir three to four times daily for five days. You can gargle with soda bi corb mouth wash. If the lesions do not subside, then consult an oral physician rather than a regular dentist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahesh Kumar T S
