Ive been eating almonds a lot lately and lately Ive noticed after one or two the tip of my tongue feels funny, sort of like after you burn your tongue on hot coffee. The initial pain fades but theres that funny feeling and you cant really taste anything for a while after. Its like that and lasts for about an hour. Why is that?
Hi. Thanks for the query. It looks like there is inflammation of the tip of the tongue that can be due to eating too much of almonds that are probably hard. It can cause inflammation of the tongue papillae and give you a sore feeling.However, it is temporary and will resolve once you avoid over eating hard foods. For now, you can do warm saline gargles, do cool compresses over the tongue tip, take soft diet and avoid spicy and hard foods. Chat Doctor. . If still there is no improvement, or it worsens get it clinically examined by a dentist. Hope this helps. Regards.
