Hello everyone, I'm going to talk to you today about a bit of a "hot" topic - burning mouth syndrome.
Don't get me wrong, this isn't a new Sichuan flavor, it's an oral disease. But don't worry, I promise this article won't make you feel "hot" pain, but will make you smile and have a whole new understanding of burning mouth syndrome.
First, let's understand what exactly burning mouth syndrome is. To put it simply, burning mouth syndrome is when you have a burning sensation in your mouth like eating a spicy hot, but you are not actually eating any irritating food. This sensation may appear on the tip of the tongue, lips, oral mucosa, etc., and sometimes accompanied by symptoms such as dry mouth and bitter mouth.
So, why do you get burning mouth syndrome? In fact, there are many reasons, which may be local factors in the oral cavity, such as malocclusion of teeth, oral infection, etc.; It can also be a systemic factor, such as menopause, diabetes, etc. Of course, sometimes too much psychological stress, or eating too much irritating food, can also lead to the occurrence of burning mouth syndrome.
So, what should you do if you have burning mouth syndrome? Don't worry, here are a few tips to share with you.
First of all, keep your mouth clean, brush your teeth regularly, rinse your mouth, and avoid food debris leaving in your mouth. Secondly, adjust your diet, eat less spicy and irritating foods, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and supplement vitamins. Again, to relax your mind and reduce stress, you can try some relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, yoga, etc.
Of course, if none of the above methods alleviate your symptoms, then you need to see a doctor. A professional doctor will give you a more specific plan according to your situation.
Finally, I would like to say that burning mouth syndrome, while it sounds a little scary, is actually not that scary. As long as we maintain good living habits, pay attention to oral hygiene, adjust our diet, and relax our minds, we can effectively prevent and alleviate burning mouth syndrome. So, you don't have to worry too much, let's easily face this "spicy" oral disease together!
