Suggest Treatment For Irritation In Mouth
Question: I have a very weird sensation at the back of my mouth, seemingly in the roof of my mouth, almost like there is something there though I can't seem to feel anything.
Brief Answer:
Examination required
Detailed Answer:
I follow what you are saying.
Clearly, it would be helpful to have a medical doctor examine you, particularly the mouth.
Since the ENT appointment is further away, see if you can get in to see a dentist now. They are also qualified to give a fair idea of problems in the roof of the mouth.
When I see someone like you in my practice, I typically order the following tests in addition to a detailed physical examination:
CBC
Electrolytes
Calcium
HbA1c
Liver function tests
Kidney function tests
TSH
25 hydroxy Vitamin D
