Hi all,
I just need advice please,
this morning I woke up & had no feeling in my mouth, the roof of my mouth, gums and tongue have no feeling & to make it worse it feels as though the roof of my mouth has been scraped off & burnt!

it feel so weird, & for a few months before this morning I used to always get numbness & itchy feeling on the outside of my left side of my mouth but the itch was from the inside so I couldnt scratch,

has anyone had this before & if so what was it?

thanks heaps :-)

mmmm...nope can't say i've ever had that happen to me. is it like the feeling you get when the dentist freezes your mouth when doing fillings?

i found this:

Burning, tingling, or numbness of the lips or inside the mouth

Changes in feeling inside the mouth may be caused by:

Irritation of the mouth from rough or broken teeth or fillings, appliances, dentures, foods, or tobacco.
Allergies to foods, medications, mouthwashes, denture base materials, or metallic fillings.
Infection, such as thrush or cold sores.
Nutritional deficiencies.
A sore in or near the mouth.
Other diseases, such as diabetes.
A problem with a nerve or the nervous system.
Continuing numbness of the tongue or other areas of the mouth can be a symptom of oral cancer and should be evaluated by a health professional.

I once had Bells palsy that's when a certain nerve in the base of the spine becomes damaged. It can happen for any reason even a viral infection can cause the damage. When it became damaged my whole rite side of my face went paralyzed including the rite side of my tongue. The neurologist gave me steroids to aid with the healing and it did heal with in a week or two. So Irene its possible you could also have a form of nerve damage.
