Burning tongue

i will suddenly wake up out of sleep and it feels like my tongue in on fire. It feels like someone put a smoke out on it

Hello and hope you are doing well.

You symptoms of a burning tongue could be due to vitamin deficiency. It could also be due to trauma or thermal injuries. Sometimes it could be a fungal infection. You will need to consult your primary care physician for proper assessment. In the meantime you can try warm salt water gargles and betadine mouth washes. And take a balanced diet rich in plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
