Hi...by what you quote I feel he has developed a series of mouth ulcers or aphthous ulcers and this is what is causing him pain and inability to feed well too. I suggest you use topical gel like Zytee gel along with a multivitamin preparation for oral administration. But, I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
