What to do if i am 21 years old, i always get canker sores in my mouth and they are extremely painful?

See your dentist: So-called "canker sores" can be caused by different things. Your dentist should be able to determine what is causing yours and suggest treatment for them, or treatment to prevent them from coming back. It just depends on the cause.
