Treatment for BMS?
-
Hello, I am 24 years old male. I have been diagnosed with BMS. I used to have a burning feeling on the tongue, the roof of the mouth, gums, inside of the cheeks, and in the back of the throat. Can anyone suggest possible treatment for it?

@nenet Hello, Medications, dry mouth, acid reflux, and poor-fitting dentures, among other issues, can cause BMS. Treatment options may include:
- Saliva replacements
- Alcohol-free mouthwashes or mouth rinse with lidocaine
- Medications that treat nerve pain
- Therapy to reduce stress
- Capsaicin, a pain reliever from chili peppers
- Anticonvulsant medication called clonazepam or Klonopin
- Antidepressants
Thank You!!
