Severe tongue pain after burning it.
Hello, doctor. I burnt my tongue on hot tea on Monday and it's created ulcers all over the front of the tongue & the pain has been unbearable for two days. I've tried salt water gargling, applying the smile ointment, gargled with Colgate plax but they only give temporary relief. I could really do with some painkillers. I burnt it on some really hot tea. The uclers/ blisters aren't really big. Very very tiny, not even properly visible but it's all over the tip of the tongue and hurting a lot.

Hello, I understand the nature of your pain. Don't use salt water and plax. It will irritate further. Use glycerine ointment over there and send a picture of your ulcer.. Feel free to contact me thru practo. Have a nice day
