General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It could be an aphthous ulcer with pus collection. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated.

If there is pus collection, it must be drained. You can apply oral steroid paste-like triamcinolone also.

Include more fruits and vegetables to your diet to prevent recurrent aphthous ulcers.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
