Irritation In Hard Palate And Tongue After Using E-cigs. Bad Taste In Mouth, Urge To Suck Against Teeth

I quit using e-cigs about 2 months ago. While using them, I'm sure I abused them. Anyway, I now have an irritation in my mouth on my hard palate, some of my tongue and also sometimes get a bad taste - either metallic or sour - in my mouth. I also have the urge to to suck against my teeth and roof of mouth. These symptoms vary from day to day. I've been using a mouthwash that the main ingredient is neem. Both my dentist and doctor see nothing pathological. Doctor gave me Miracle mouthwash but it just treats the symptoms. I'm thinking of going to Traditional Chinese medicine before I go to an ENT. What do you think?
