Do I have a tongue allergy problem?!
Question: Do I have a tongue allergy problem!?
My tongue has been sore and itchy for about 6 days!. I haven't been eating anything new!. I know some toothpastes are too chemically harsh but I've also been using the same one for years!. My tongue feels sore and irritating!.I have no white film, my tongue is a bit redder than usual and there are very small red bumps right at the back (this is where it really itches)!. Is this an allergy or something else!? How should i treat the problem!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Allergic reactions don't tend to last days at a time, so I suspect you have something else going on here!. It is possible that a food (or toothpaste) that you've eaten / used for years has changed it's formula, and you're sensitive to that ingredient!. It's also possible that you're now slightly allergic to something that you didn't used to be allergic to ( I recently discovered an allergy to sunflower seeds)!. Change toothpaste and give it a few days, and if there no change, if there is something you eat daily (a candy-bar or other snack) cut that out for a day or two to see if there is an improvement!. You'll want to cut one of the items out at a time to find what you're allergic to (cutting them all out at once won't help you narrow it down)!. You may want to seek professional help too - that can never hurt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
