I had a very sore tooth, so for two days straight I gargled non stop with mouthwash (Crest Prohealth) and Listerine. Now I have a terrible burn on the inside of my mouth, my tongue is grey and inside of my cheeks are greyish white and peely looking. What can I do. Thanks
Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. Your problem suggest over usage of the mouth wash, which has caused the burning of the skin, tongue and cheeks. I would advise you to stop using that and for the pain you can take an ibuprofen Tablet if you are not allergic to any medication. Avoid spicy food and hot food for a while and sip lots of water. Apply mucosal/denote on the tissues two to three times daily. Do saline gargling. If still persisting, visit your local dentist and get it checked up. Hope this was useful. Thanks and regards.
