My mom is undergoing chemotherapy. currently she has serious mouth sores due to side effect, can't even drink properly. how to reduce this side effect?

Sores in mouth: Symptoms such as mouth sores, as a result of chemotherapy need to be reported to the oncologist immediately. They must be told about her symptoms before asking any other doctor for advice.

Mouth sores: Getting mouth sores during chemotherapy is not an uncommon responce. It is not only a painful situation during a stressful time but can affect your general health and healing capacity. Difficulty eating and drinking can weaken your mother. I would suggest you talk to your md or dentist for a numbing rinse. Food may not taste good but nourishing. A rinse with benedryl, xylocaine (lidocaine) and kaopectate.
