How bad is the ulcer? Can you post a pic? What are your water stats?

Myxazin would be my med of choice for Ulcers, and is safe to use with Discus IME

75l is a very small tank for Discus. Is this a QT/Breeding system? If so, what is the other stock (if any) ATM by way of Fry or other fish that are ill?

All the best

Ulcers are pink or red with a circling of dead white tissue around the edges. They can also be caused by external parasites.
Also anti internal bacteria med by interpet treats ulcers.

Ulcers can clear with large regular waterchanges as the only treatment IME. I would avoid the Interpet med where possible, it's only just weak enough to still be legal on the market here in the UK, and has an awful habbit of up-setting the bio-filter IME If it gets worse, dose the Myxazin to start and use the Interpet med if Myxazin dose not work
