Pages: 1 Burning Tongue??       #8721 - 05/09/03 11:35 AM Edit Reply Quote tnchawk Reged: 04/02/03 Posts: 489 Loc: New Ken, PA Has anyone experienced this as part of IBS or digestive problems? I get areas on my tongue that feel like I have "burned" them, but it is not temporary like a typical food burn. It seems to come and stick around for awhile..HELP! -------------------- What if the Hokey Pokey is what it's all about???

But apparently my dentist has found a spot on the side of my tongue where I have off and on what I have called a "hot" spot. I figured I was some how biting it or something. She did a little scrap test thing and it came back "negative" or something like that - Curious though..... Mine is on the side almost under - and mid way to 3/4 way back... Is yours all over? Any physical signs?

She saw docs and dentists for years about this and no one ever had a clue, until one day she saw a new doc and the first thing he said was that she was probably anemic. They did a blood test and sure enough, that was it. So she started taking iron pills and the burning went away. Maybe this is related? - Heather -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.

I might be anemic as well; I am not sure. I don't have the burning today; it comes and goes. I also wonder if I could have a food allergy and just don't know. I will have to watch and see when it comes and what I have eaten. Thanks for all the advice! -Christianne -------------------- What if the Hokey Pokey is what it's all about???

I suspected Citrucel and stopped taking it and the tingling went away. Hope it helps. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
