5. Allergies

Allergies of all types can cause irritation to occur in the mouth and throat. Seasonal allergies can cause excessive coughing, which can cause injury to the inside of the esophagus, especially in combination with post-nasal drip and an inflamed larynx, both of which are also common allergy symptoms.

Individuals with seasonal, pet dander and food allergies can experience vomiting and throat irritation, which can lead to sores developing in the throat or on the tonsils.7Mouth Sores and Inflammation (Stomatitis) By Bernard J.
