Burning Mouth Syndrome. I have it very severe.

I’m 55 and have a severe case of Burning Mouth as well. I’m going on three years and no significant relief. I’ve been to every doctor and have tried so many medication. I’ve seen doctors from John Hopkins and Georgetown in DC and still no results. The only temporary relief I get is mixing a few drops (as hot as you can tolerate) of Tabasco Sauce mixed with water and rinse your mouth out with it. I know it not conventional but it does give me about an hour of relief. If you try it and it works, please let me know (one of my doctors suggested it).

I used Tabasco sauce also and I haven't had Burning Mouth in sometime. I learned about it in this article from Brigham and Women's Hospital. You have to do it four times a day. I think I did it for 10 days. No longer have symptoms. On the rare occasion it returns I do the rinse. https://www.brighamandwomens.org/assets/BWH/surgery/oral-medicine-and-dentistry/pdfs/burning-mouth-syndrome-bwh.pdf
