Burning mouth syndrome – anyone else have this?

I've included this discussion in the Skin Health support group. At Mayo Clinic, specialists in dermatology treat burning mouth syndrome. Depending on your needs, specialists in ear, nose and throat (ENT), dentistry, pain medicine and other areas work together as a multispecialty team to evaluate and treat this condition.

Burning mouth syndrome is the medical term for ongoing or recurring burning in the mouth without an obvious cause. You may feel this burning on your tongue, gums, lips, inside of your cheeks, roof of your mouth or large areas of your whole mouth. The feeling of burning can be severe, as if you injured your mouth with a very hot drink.

Burning mouth syndrome usually comes on suddenly, but it can develop slowly over time. Often the specific cause can't be found. Although that makes treatment more challenging, working closely with your health care team can help you reduce symptoms.

I solved my burning mouth and tongue. Silent reflux and Barrett’s. Ppi’s, sucralfate liquid and pepsid complete stopped my burning but took a good 30 days to start seeing results. I feel so much better.

Thank you! I suffered so much burning and had several specialist and dentists over 3.5 years. I hope my experience helps someone else. Treatment with acid reducers and sucralfate liquid is not quick but I could see a difference after 2 weeks with much more relief at 30 days and much more at 60. 4 months in an every month is better. Burning mouth and tongue and tooth is hard!
