Heya,
I am not a dentist, but im going to try and answer it as best as i can for you!.
Firstly, the condition that caused the thrush must be brought under control!. This might involve investing in new and better fitting dentures, or adjusting diabetes treatment!. For AIDS patients, it is not always possible to correct the immune deficiency, and a course of oral treatment using antifungal drugs has to be used!.
Once the condition that caused the oral thrush has been treated, the thrush itself can be cured!. Treatment is with antifungal medicines, in the form of pastilles that are sucked or oral suspensions that are held in the mouth before swallowing!. These allow the antifungal agent to act locally in the mouth!. Examples include nystatin (eg Nystan oral suspension), amphotericin (eg Fungilin lozenges) or miconazole (eg Daktarin oral gel)!.
In certain complicated cases, or if the infection spreads, systemic treatment will be necessary in the form of antifungal tablets, or perhaps in the form of injections!.
Thrush can make the mouth so sensitive that it is impossible to perform regular oral hygiene!. Use a very soft toothbrush!. It can often help to rinse the mouth with a diluted solution of 3 per cent hydrogen peroxide!.
If whatever caused the thrush can be brought under control, the infection is likely to go away after a few days of treatment with a fungicide!.

Hope i helped please contact your local GP so he can help you get rid of this and bring it under control!. It is normal for your gums to hurt due to the thrush but it really needs bringing under control so you dont have to suffer this misery!.
Take care my sweetie
