Dent and pimple in gums on bottom jaw?

I noticed a bump on the inside of my mouth on my bottom jaw. I felt t with my tongue and it felt like a blister, so I pressed my finger to it and it popped. Now there's what seems like a dent there, I felt the opposite side and it was clear and smooth, but the other side is hurting, especially where the bump was and the sort of dent. Any ideas?

    You have something called a canker sore :) It happens when you eat a lot of acidic things, or spicy things. You'll know you have it when you feel a little bump, if you mess with it or wait. It will pop, then there will be a white little dent there. It will sting for a few days, but if you want to get rid of it fast follow these instructions.

    ~~~

    1. Fill a cup with lukewarm water

    2. Put a tablespoon or more of salt in the water.

    3. Gurgle it making sure you cleansed the canker sore as well.

    4. Spit

    ~~~

    Continue this every morning and night and it should be gone by no time. :)

    Hope this helped
