Fingers crossed - it may just be an ulcer. cleaning your mouth after each meal and eating non irritating foods - see if it heals a bit. Hopefully it will, but do go see your dr. asap. A scan will not help as inflammation also shows up on a scan. He will tell you if he thinks it's something insidious and likely do a biopsy. So why wait? take care and hugs.
