Mouth ulcers can be from many different causes. Most commonly they are canker sores or cold sore, which are from a type of virus. Other causes can be vitamin deficiency, trauma from your teeth, or immune type diseases such as Crohns disease. Best thing to do is have your ENT take a look and let them know what you have already been using to treat it. They may need to biopsy the area, or give you a different prescription medication.
Gargle with peroxide and mouthwash in a 50:50 mixture. Do that 2-3 times per day. Go to local ENT physician if no help.

Could be viral. Get viral testing and, if positive, anti-virus therapy could eliminate ulcers.
