See your dentist: It could be a variety of issues but a trained dentist will most likely be able to figure out what is happening. If your dentist is unable to help they would be able to write a refferal to an ENT if necessary. Try using some oil of clove and take some ibuprofen to help with the discomfort until you are able to see your dentist. Best of luck!

Sour = Acid: The acid can be coming from bacteria or from reflux. Why it is affecting only the right side of your mouth is unknown. See a local dentist to have your teeth and gums evaluated, then take it from there. Feel better soon...

See your PCP: Dysgeusia is a change in your sense of taste due to a variety of causes; from anxiety to dental problems, medications and treatments or simple seasonal flu. See your PCP foe consultation and tests.
