On And Off Sensation Of Burnt Tongue. Test Result For Thrush Negative. Any Allergic Reaction?
Hi I have had thrush for about 3 months but now my gp says that the test result for thrush came back negative. I am now getting a sensation of a burnt tongue this seemed to cool a little yesterday but after about half hour after dinner it flared up for about two hours. Could this be an alergic reaction or something else?

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Burnt sensation may be due to burning from some hot substance, spicy substance, allergy, vitamin deficiency or infection. If there is any injury due to hot substance or alcohol or some chemicals that will stay and any minor thermal injury will cause it to reappear. Similarly for allergy and vitamin deficiency you may feel like burnt tongue. Take multivitamins (B complex) capsules, plenty of fruits and cold fluids, avoid alcohol and soft drinks. If it persists or develops any other associated symptoms then consult your doctor for examination and management.
Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take care.
Regards
Dr. Lohit
