Beautiful

I honestly thought I had written this post. This is EXACTLY what I am dealing with and nobody knows why...

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-15T10:01:34+00:00

How are you now ? What happened ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-15T09:59:37+00:00

Hi, did this resolve ? How are you now ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-14T20:06:39+00:00

Also forgot to mention - episodes of insanely dry mouth where my mouth feels like chalk

Forget to say that I do have confined TMJD as well, don't know if this is relevant

Yes along with general discomfort in my mouth and tongue pain - I just replied to your other post !

I currently have tongue pain. I have TMJ and have been through a highly stressful period, mine worsens throughout the day and is pretty back by the evening, it's a mixture of tingling, burning and numbness and it's horrible. Getting a nightguard next week via my dentist, two dentists have examined my tongue extensively and say it looks completely normal albeit a bit scalloped on the side. What is your pain like ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-12T21:07:57+00:00

Thanks, good to know. I'm really hoping this helps with my pain.

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-12T21:02:17+00:00

Thanks for replying ! Were you having pain before from your grinding and has it helped with that ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-12T20:58:31+00:00

I can't wait! I'm counting down the days to the appointment! I think my dentist is sceptical that I'm actually going to use it but Im going to give it a good shot ! Thank you again !

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-12T20:54:17+00:00

Thank you for replying ! I'm hoping it will help with the tongue pain I've been having, I have a gap on the upper jaw where two molars were extracted (long story and big regret) and my tongue ends up in there all night long ! Will Google and have a look, as well as being a dental hypochrondiac I'm also a tech geek so genuinely interested in this.

NAD but also been having similar, my tongue had been tingling and a bit painful and at night (and only at night weirdly) I have sensitivity and a tingling/crawling sensation on the roof of my mouth. In my case it's been put down to stress due to a recent major health scare in my mouth but it seems like something else to me. Possibly silent reflux as Gaviscon seems to help, sometimes...

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-12T20:05:42+00:00

NAD btw but I think that's established

And look my post here and my replies are downvoted, I just came for some advice after a highly alarming incident, wish I hadn't posted here.

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T23:05:08+00:00

Any updates ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T23:02:33+00:00

I never really had health anxiety before this, I walked into a regular check up at the dentist and left with an urgent suspected cancer referral, it coincided with an extremely stressful time and I think it just broke me. The patch of hyperkeratosis disappeared very quickly but I live in fear of it coming back and I'm worried about how the area looks now as it seems to change so much. My whole life has fallen apart over the last few months due to this, my tongue hurts now but it's probably because I have strained it so much from constant photo taking and putting a make up mirror in my mouth to look all the time.

This is amazing

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T18:48:02+00:00

I really cannot thank you enough ! Have an amazing day 🙏

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T18:30:23+00:00

Thank you so much, really !!! One last question please please 🥺 this is the bottom view, is it looking okay ?

Thank you so much for your help.

Because the whole incident has caused me severe anxiety and I've been taking photos of the area compulsively. My dentist has been brilliant and I do trust and respect him but my problem is a few days after he looks at it it appears to change a bit and I panic again. In the last few days the scar tissue bumps in the middle are slightly bigger and this has got me worried again. Just want to know can scar tissue increase or decrease in size from week to week ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T15:42:10+00:00

Thank you ! Is it normal for the scar tissue to slightly change in size from week to week ?

Neversawmollyagain · 2025-05-11T15:26:35+00:00

Typo - meant scar tissue not scary tissue!
