Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
As per your history, the possible causes or soreness in your palate can be because of the recurrent aphthous ulcers or herpes zoster infection, erosive lichen planus or pemphigus or erythema multiforme.
So consult a oral physician and get yourself examined completely and diagnose it properly and treat accordingly. If the lesions are not healing even after 15 days, you can get a biopsy of the lesion done to diagnose the conditon. Mean while you can use topical anesthetic and analgesics like 2%lignocain gel( anabel gel) apply 3-4 times daily before food and topical steroid like triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% 4-5times daily after food.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
