Thank you, dear. I have had B M S, for 14 yrs. I live with it.
Thanks for sharing!
I started "R Alpha Lipoic Acid" last night and mine is Alot better today. Not sure if it's related but I heard that it can help out with relieving the pain. Mine has hurt off and on since November of 2023. It's been really bad over the last week up until yesterday and today is much better. Good luck!
@jquillin82q99 wonderful, so glad that you are feeling better.
@@jquillin82q99 Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Indeed, alpha-lipoic acid is one of the available treatment options. The only drawback that sometimes occurs is the complaint of gastritis from some patients. I'm glad to hear that it's working well for you.
Sandralazarus , I have had bms for 5 years, how are you doing and do you take anything for your bms. I chew gum all day that’s the only thing that helps me.
I have had these symptoms for several years. I never mentioned it to the doctor. Now I finally know. I'm 63, and my troubles started 3 years ago after being diagnosed with PPPD Persistent Postoral Perceptual Dizziness. I'm working on controlling the PPPD symptoms when I came across this!😑
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's great to hear that this video was able to provide some answers for you. Just a friendly reminder that it's important to discuss any concerns or symptoms you may have with your doctor. Take care, and I hope you find some relief soon.
@@OralPathology360 Unfortunately doctors are clueless and useless. They dismiss this because they aren't familiar with it.
Thank you.
Welcome
Do you recommend acupuncture?
This is such an important conversation. I am 42, looks like Perimenopausal. Last time i tested my estrogen was very high but i have burning mouth and burning feet with whiteness in touge. I am having heart burn
Thank you for the comment. I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing symptoms of oral burning. Indeed, hormonal changes can cause a sensation of burning in the mouth, and it doesn't necessarily mean you have BMS (Burning Mouth Syndrome). Several studies indicate that hormonal imbalance can trigger a burning sensation in the mouth. I suggest discussing this with your physician to stabilize estrogen levels.
@@josemiguelamenabar Thank you very uch!
Hello...i am suffering with this since i got my covid shot.
How do you feel about acupuncture? I started that yesterday. Ive had all tests.. all normal
I read that chiropractic treatment helps.
Is sensitive teeth part of burning mouth syndrome?
Hi, Thank you for your question. Sensitive teeth may coexist with burning mouth but they are not related per se. For either condition it is important that you visit your dental care provider and get an opinion and any treatment required.
Sensitive teeth and burning mouth syndrome are not related. However, there can be some overlap or co-occurrence. That is why is important to consult with a dentist if you are experiencing either sensitive teeth or symptoms of burning mouth syndrome, as they can provide a proper diagnosis and recommend the best treatment.
How do I use the chamomile mouth rinse? How successful is it?
We typically instruct the patient to rinse with cold chamomile tea, at least for 1 minute, 5-6 times a day. When you begin to notice the burning sensation, you can perform the rinse.
Regarding the success rate, we see improvements (reduction in the burning sensation) in 80-90% of cases, but it takes some time to achieve this improvement (6-8 weeks).
Can it be from acid reflux
Thank you for your comment! Acid reflux can indeed be one of the factors that contribute to Burning Mouth Syndrome. It's essential to consult a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause and find the best treatment options.
Hi, I have BMS for the past 4 years and investigate through Upper GI specialist in London ( Acid Reflux)- Endoscopy + CT Scan and everything but could not define anything. I have seen two dentists and Chinese herbal medicine , acupuncture. ENT speialist ,,,, so on but Not successful. I have taken B12, VD, Magnesium …… it’s Not Auto immmune disease. To this today, No one knows. So my advice is Please Do not waste your Money any more. I am now sucking frozen fruit pieces and chewing Gums. Hope it disappear one day. Wishing you a bit of help with my testimonial journal.
I have yet to find similar symptom to me. My BMS started with feeling of something stuck in throat. It is still there and often results in lots of throat clearing and sounding congested. The place I feel it seems to change so there is nothing really stuck in my throat. I've had a CT scan, barium swallow, upper endoscopy with bravo (pH test). I had my uvula removed as we thought that was touching my tongue. Nothing has helped and I'm at my wits end. Anyone also have that feeling of something stuck in the throat along with BMS? Also I'm a 54 year old man, and this usually affects women. Going on 2 years now.
Almost sounds like an allergy
@@lindah629 Yeah I'm at my wits end. I've done total elimination diets and no change. Gone carnivore, keto. Cut coffee. Heck I even cut out booze for a month. Kinda glad it wasn't booze causing it. :D
I used a chlorhexidine mouthwash (periogard) yesterday , and right now my mouth is experiencing burning sensations esp my tongue and lips, I researched that this could potentially be a side effect of chlorhexidine, but its been like this for the past 18 hours im afraid it might develope to BMS, what should i do ?
Please do not be alarmed, it is possible you are having a mild reaction/irritation because of the mouthwash. Uncomfortable as this is right now the chances of this one time use leading to BMS is very minuscule. Relax and have soothing food and drink for a couple of days. All should be well.
My whole tongue is burning like I have hot Chilli placed.And sides of tongue I see & feel puss on side capillaries & it is painful. Feeling thirsty but water I test bitter. Can't enjoy any food. Lost appetite too.Lips becomes dry too.
Please help me Dr.,I like you are very carrying 🙏
@@bhavanapatelabsolutelytrue2625 I'm no doctor but if you still have this issue you need to see an ENT. Puss is a sign of infection. BMS alone usually has no physical signs. If you have puss you have a problem they can probably fix.
Are there any Dr's that to CZcams or ?? Looking for patients to work with on certain issues such as Burning Mouth syndrome? So ppl see what is happening step by step with on going treatments?
My issue also included 2 masses that grew on my tongue. Both removed and no cancer. But was odd. I only saw 1 which grew like a large skin tag. But once the dr went to remove it, found a second smaller one behind it. Both way back near back teeth. Only recently diagnosed with BMS though. It only took 4 yrs. This should tell you about the drs here...
I'd like the dr/everyone to know the full story and everything we had to do to get back on track..
Hey there! Thanks for sharing your experience with Burning Mouth Syndrome. It's frustrating when it takes so long to get a proper diagnosis, but I'm glad you finally have one. And it's great news that the masses were removed and there was no cancer. Keep us updated on your progress with BMS and let's hope for a smoother journey ahead!
@OralPathology360 Ha ha... it wasn't that easy to diagnose. I was told several things and drs and dentists refused to touch me until i was diagnosed. And still i haven't seen a dentist... tge dr just put me in a medication, i sit on my tongue to disolve. Its not helping yet.
Btw, this took almost 5 yrs to just get to this point.
I figured if a Dr nearby wanted to go through the process to see what works and not, maybe this could help someone else going through this....
It is frustrating because general practitioners dont know squat about who to send you to...
I saw 3 different ENTs and paid to see dentists that refused to touch me, back to ENTs and then ER 2x. I got a weird facial infection that reached into my right ear... my face swollen , eyes shut. Er gave me cream and meds, by tge next day my ear was pouring blood. Returned to the ER and immediately pumped with several drugs via IV for 6 days. Liquid diet etc.. 3 dif IVs. They had to put 1 in all the way to my heart. The ENT was a partner to one i had previously seen that didn't know what it was. Infact he thought it was an auto immune issue then walked it back by next in office visit. Then i finally got to a oral pathologist.
I just thought maybe to help others not have to go through all i did. I had 2 6/7 disc caging surgeries and it initially started before then but because of the hell i went through to get my surgeries and redundant testing for several yrs.. lied to by the fake bs surgeon... 1 month say i need 3 discs fused, then every month added something different. As if to normalize something vs just come out and tell me...
C-2 to T-1or 2 and C-3 to T2 or 3
Front and back. Its slightly offset and i have constant pain...
Anyhow, because of the delays over 3 yrs of bs redundant tests.. my newest ortho dr told them my final tests will be in the hospital vs outside labs. So they insurance couldn't delay it again.
Really sorry to hear of your troubles.
If you need to find an oral pathologist/ oral medicine specialist near by, let me know where you are located. I will try and help.
@OralPathology360 Currently I'm seeing a Dr Grin in Torrance... maybe you aren't understanding what my message/idea is. Or avoiding it
@@robzombieshot, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I get your point; however, I do not know of any doctor who shares step-by-step patient diagnosis or management details on CZcams or any public platform.
I got burning mouth 1 February 2023
My doctor put me on
Alpha Lipoic Acid but I was wondering if it’s good to use if you have Gerd
There is scientific evidence suggesting that alpha-lipoic acid can be used to help in cases of BMS. However, if the patient has gastrointestinal problems, which are common in these types of patients, alpha-lipoic acid may induce more gastritis symptoms.
Do you have any relief with aloha lipoic acid ?
My mouth burn for one year can get help? Try all the medication from neurologist don’t help me.
I'm sorry to hear about your prolonged burning sensation in the mouth. I suggest gargling with cold chamomile tea, which may help alleviate the sensation. Also, consider consulting a dentist specializing in stomatology or oral pathology.
I can't find cause 3 years. Lost everything over this. I pulled teeth because happened after and now I have nothing.
Thanq so much.i am lupus diabetic. Patient .now suddenly git this afterclove oil. Oregano oil. .burning in vagina .using alpha lipolic acid .pl suggest me

Hello does the lipoc acid help ? I have burning mouth and am suffering greatly
Got bms after dental work:-( it’s been 5 years
The only thing that helps is chewing gum or eating
I am very sorry to hear that. It is not common to have BMS after a dental treatment. I recommend you to check it with your dentist.
I developed BMS two days after I had to put my beloved cat down. He was the love of my life and it was a shock to have to make that decision because cancer was found in his stomach. This was a year ago….additionally I have developed vulvodynia and they both seem to happen at the same times. I’m wondering if this may be from my emotions and grief. What is your opinion? I have been checked out by many doctors and dentists, and they find nothing? I am 73, post menopausal, healthy. Would love to hear your opinion about this. Thank u Bon Chauvin
I am sorry to hear that you have been experiencing these issues for a year now. Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) can be a challenging condition to diagnose and manage. The exact cause of BMS is often unclear and can be associated with various factors, including hormonal changes and psychological factors. In your case, based on your story, I believe it may be related to the painful decision you had to make for your cat. Perhaps you should consider seeking psychological support. Given the emotional stress and grief you are experiencing, counseling or therapy may help in managing the emotional aspects of the condition.
