My tounge feels dry and it hurts......?!


Question:

My tounge feels dry and it hurts......?

do have any idea whats up with it?
and how i can make it not hurt?
is it from chewing gum all day every day or... what!?
please help!!


Answers:

Chewing gum will do it. When you do this it locks up a chemical known as benzene in your tounge. This normally gives a wet feeling in your mouth, but sugars and gum base take out the chemical and it feels dry. Then when chewing it will hurt because there is a lack of moisture. I would drink more water or chew less gum to help. An extra 2 glasses a day should help for a heavy chewer.
