Hello Npsinghi01,
Hello and welcome to our forum.
I think that you may mean oral mucositis which can be a side effect from chemotherapy and sometimes radiotherapy. It is an inflammation of the mucous membranes which can be very painful causing mouth ulcers and difficulty with swallowing. I have added a few links explaining this and gives you some details on how best to deal with the symptoms
