Ok first off stop the hydrogen and gargle with warm salt water every day as many times as you like. This will soothe the infection. Now go to a doctor this can be anything from a canker sore to strep throat. They need to do a culture and figure out what it is because it may need antibiotics.

It looks like a canker sore. Theres stuff you can buy called canka that gets rid of them. If it doesn't work, see a doc.
