It could be any number of things. If you still arent better, go back to the doctor. I suggest seeing an ENT. Find one that specializes in oral cancer. They are the most qualified to visually identify whats going on.
Stress can play a part in why you havent healed yet. Try your best to keep your mind off worrying. Constantly focusing on "what if" is not helpful at all. Do yourself a favor and stop googling symptoms. If you put in the right things even a 90 year old man can be diagnosed as being pregnant.
