I have mouth-related pains, including pain on the lower front gums with small canker sores, multiple canker sores under the tongue and on the back of the lips, and painful tongue surface when eating/drinking/gargling salt water.

Could the mouthwash be the cause, and if so, why? How long until these symptoms go away?
