Hi there I have been throwing up almost every day more than twice for the past 2 months due to pregnancy but I noticed about 2 or 3 weeks ago my tongue started feeling sore and it feels like patches of skin are gone and it burns to eat or drink a lot of things. Could that be why?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.Due to continuous vomiting and retching, there is possibility that contents of the stomach which will be acidic in nature, can affect the tongue leading to soreness, abrasions. Sometimes if you do not fulfill increased demand of vitamins in pregnancy, that can lead to vitamin deficiency which can also lead to soreness. So, now the measures that can help you are :-Continuing intake of anti-emetics. Doxinate is preferable in pregnancy, you can take twice a day also. If vomiting are severe and  not getting controlled with that, you can use Ondencetron occasionally. -Take multivitamin tablets or syrup. Prefer soft diet till soreness decreases. -Local analgesics like Zytee gel can help in decreasing pain. Hope I have answered your query and I will be happy to answer any further follow-up queries. Take care.
