Do any of you get weird sensations in your tongue. Mine feels strange sometimes. It's doing it right now. Kinda like a tingling sensation.

Thanks,
Jacq.

My tongue burns periodically and I know, it's extremely irritating.

HORMONES! Many women in menopause feel this. It is also anxiety. Perimenopause can cause a very rough ride, leaving one feeling full of anxiety. Yes, anxiety can come by itself alone and cause hormones to go off balance, but that is not what is happening here! We are at the age where ovulation is not occurring as frequently if at all. This in itself is a drastic change to the body by hormones beginning to decline. The body begins to react, we pay attention to the body and therefore get anxious and get anxiety. This is why I say, do not pay attention if you canhelp it. I get dizzy's, muscle twitches, etc almost everyday and I just have to keep walking otherwise I would be a basket case and full of panic attacks!

I have periods of a few months where it feels like my tongue is constantly burning like I scorched it. It quit doing it for awhile, but now it's doing it again. My dentist gave me some mouthwash and it seems to help a bit.
