Hi..
Can understand your concern..
As per your complain it seems that you have Canker Sores or apthous ulcers which are causing you pain and bad taste in mouth..

It can occur due to a number of reasons but the exact cause is unknown..

You can do warn saline gargles.
Gargle with 1:1 solution of benadryl and milk of magnesia can help..
Gargle with dilute hydrogen peroxide solution and apply milk of magnesia after that can help..
Sucking ice pops can help..
You can apply numbing gel over the sores like oragel to relieve pain and discomfort especially during eating..
You can take Advil to relieve pain and inflammation..

In case if the ulcers do not subside even after the following treatment you need to take a steroid therapy like Medrol twice daily for 5 to 7 days..
Multivitamin tablet one daily has to be taken for 15 days..

Hope this information helps..

If you find the answer helpful kindly write a positive review and click on found this answer helpful as a token of appreciation..

Thanks and regards..
