- Poor oral hygiene also cause mouth or tongue sores .
- Certain medicines cause such symptoms as their side effects .
I would suggest you to maintain proper oral hygiene , Do betadine gargles 2-3 times a day , Avoid hot and spicy food and take vitamin C supplement to boost the immunity .
If condition still persist then consult your doctor . Doctor may alter the dose or give some alternative medicine .
thank you hope i answered your query
