Members connected over the shared experience of sore tongue with fibromyalgia, describing sensations including burning, a peppery feeling on the sides and back of the tongue, and sometimes a metallic taste that makes talking uncomfortable and requires extra focus on articulation. Several members found relief through drinking lots of water, using organic toothpaste, oral antiseptics like Dynexan, antibacterial mouthwash, and medications like clonazepam, while also managing related symptoms like mouth ulcers and geographic tongue. A recurring theme was the relief of discovering this is a common fibromyalgia symptom rather than something more serious, though members noted the frustration of symptoms lasting days or weeks and the challenge of distinguishing fibromyalgia effects from anxiety.

My tongue feels sore sometimes and the feeling like I drank something hot and burned it. No visible sores either however I do get ulcers from time to time.

Yes. Far back tongue on left and right. Burns and has hurt on and off since September. When it gets that way, I dont like to talk and feel like I have to focus on articulation more. No solution other than take my clonazepam and drink tons of water / use organic toothpaste

Hello. I have burning sensations on my tongue. Can't eat anything spicy or sour. Doc 1st thoughy it was 1 of the symptoms of Lupus. Was treated 4 Lupus 4 a year and then doc realized no its not Lupus. I also bite the inner of my cheeks when eating. I occasionally get fever sored(no fever) on my upper lip. For my tongue and cheek i use dynexan (oral antiseptic) and an antibacterial mouthwash. These help very well to heel the ulcers. The ulcer on upper lip i use acitop and that helps without keaving a scar. Hope this helps. Tc🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
