Thanks for the query..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it looks like you are suffering from Apthous Stomatitis that leads to the symptoms of sensitivity and soreness inside mouth along with sores and bad taste in mouth..

It can be caused due to a number of reasons like Stress, Nutritional Deficiency [Iron, Vitamin B12 and Folic acid] , hormonal changes, acid reflux, tongue trauma due to some sharp teeth or tongue biting habit, excessive intake of sour and citrus foods, uncontrolled diabetes etc..

You need to consult an Oral Physician or a general dentist in this regard to get evaluated and treated..

As of now can do warm saline gargles
Gargles with 1:1 solution of benadryl and milk of magnesia can help..
Apply numbing gel over the sore for relief from pain especially during eating..
Take a Vitamin B complex tablet for a period of 15 days..
Avoid spicy, sour and acidic foods..
Suck ice lollies..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
