Hi,
It can be due to stomatitis or gingivostomatitis or gingivitis that causes your soreness over the mucosa of mouth.
You can take antibiotics (cephalosporins group preffered)with analgesic, antiinflammatory and vitamin B complex with folic acid,
Chlorhexidine oral mouth wash would also help.
Just see your family physician or ENT surgeon. You will be alright after this.
