What To Do If Tongue Stings As Am Allergic To Nectarines?
I think I am allergic to nectarines. I have never had a reaction like this in the past. My tongue feels like I burnt it with hot soup. It's been like this for a week. I have been rinsing with Listerine and it stings. Just started taking benadryl.
Any suggestions

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may want consider discontinuing the use of the listerine. This would only aggravate any injury to the tongue.
You can consider continuing the benadryl. The use of an anti inflammatory agent may also help to decrease any inflammation and discomfort that you are experiencing.
I hope this helps
