Hi
As per your description, it looks like a Taste bud infection.
You should avoid Hot and spicy food,stop smoking and Alchohol if you are taking them.
Mouth gargling with salt water will be helpful.
In my opinion, you should take a Anti inflammatory tablet along with multivitamin supplements. Both these are available over the counter.
Nothing to worry.
It will come down in a weeks time. .
If there is no response, you should consult a Oral surgeon,get examined clinically and proceed accordingly.
