I'm dealing with a recurring ulcer that always seems to pop up in the same spot, and it's getting pretty big. At the same time, the lymph node on that side swells up too, and this has happened more than a couple of times over the past six months. I'm really worried it might be mouth cancer. How can I find out what's going on? What do you think?
