Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS): Anyone found any relief?

Posted by ristu @ristu, Feb 22, 2019

I have BMS 3 years now. Has anyone had pain, and inflammation relief from GABA capsules, or liquid ? Vitiman B12 ?

Nothing has helped…….
I have been suffering for 10 years and have tried most everything. Searching the web I recently found Dr. Hauser at Caring Medical in Ft.Myers FL . His clinic believes BMS relate to the Vagus Nerve in the neck and that they can help with prolotherapy,but do not take insurance and the starting price is $3000 !!!
I don’t know what to think about this Prolotherapy Treatment ??
Has anyone had any success with this treatment??

If you go to a cervical chiropractor that does gentle realignments that will help as misalignment in the C-spine can put pressure on the vagus nerve, especially if you default to a forward head posture

My BMS started 3.25 years ago when I had COVID (again). This was the first time I took
Paxlovid for COVID. My BMS seems to have improved, but not cured. Wish I could take Paxlovid for BMS to see if it’s related but, of course, it’s not approved for that. I have started using fluoride-free toothpaste and try not to drink water with fluoride in it, and that might be another factor for lessened burning pain. Maybe there will be more research for a cure.
