“Did you ever try to burn your tongue?”

Well, I had burned my tongue because of a hot soup today. I was so hungry and forgot to blow the spoon with soup.lol It was so terrible and I need to use some ice cubes to pacify the localized pain. The end result, I can’t enjoy my meal for lunch because of it. I can’t talk much during my online classes and it feels the discomfort of enunciating the English words. I hope it will be fine tomorrow. I will be more careful next time. Now, I am about to sleep. I need to rest my restless body. See you later. Goodnight, guys! “Have you ever experienced this?” Image Credit: pixabay.com

I have burned my tongue when I forget how hot it's going to be. It takes a couple days for the pain to go away.

@enlightenedpsych2 My tongue is sensitive for at least a couple days. So is the roof of my mouth.

@just4him I agree. I woke up early and the pain is still there. After I had my breakfast, I took a pill to ease up the pain. I am going to teach the student and it will be a torture if I am not going to take any medicines.

@enlightenedpsych2 I agree. The ice can stop the swelling and it will prevent from having blisters.

I have burned my tongue and my palate by eating too hot meals. I did not TRY to do it though. I have noticed that I have to be extra careful with dishes heated in a microwave oven

I agree. I guess I was so in a hurry to eat my meal and didn't take extra care eating the soup. The pain subsided and hopefully, it will be gone soon. I also sometimes use a microwave to reheat some leftovers and never dare to eat the food while still hot. But this soup failed me for being careless.lol

I hate when that happens! Sometimes I underestimate how hot soups can be. Have a good nights rest

@Shavkat Good to hear you slept well. I had a hot noodle dish for dinner but I blew on it so I wouldn't burn my tongue!

Plenty of times since I am always the one who makes the meals and I have to taste the food. If I am in a hurry and I am not careful then it happens at the worst of times and I cannot enjoy my food. I am sure by tomorrow you'll be fine.

I agree. It will happen for a couple of times with people who love to cook. You need to be extra careful, my friend. I woke up and it feels less pain. But I still need to take a magic pill for the day.

Usually I always try and see how hot the food or drink is first but I have done it eaten things that are a bit too hot. Take care and don´t rush if you can.

It hurts but usually the pain does not last long. I did and not with soup, but with hot sugar, it was worse. I was preparing a caramel and tasted the hot sugar, silly me.

That would be more painful because the sugar will stick long to our tongue. How did you deal with it?

I have burned my tongue while eating. Usually, it happened with food from the microwave. Sometimes it heats unevenly and part of it is boiling and part lukewarm.

@Shavkat You have to remember to stir it well so the heat will be even. When I am really hungry, I forget.

When you burn your tongue it is hard to enjoy any food. I burned my mouth one time with pizza, I don't want to repeat that experience. Hope you tongue feel better soon.

Always... I even experienced blisters forming on my hard palate. And no matter how hot it is, I never spit it out... I don't know why, but that's how I do it.

@Shavkat It's not that serious but I think it's funny to have blisters there. It's not even painful, unlike with a burnt tongue.

I have, but haven't in a long time. I drink hot tea all the time, so maybe I'm just used to watching out for hotness in eating/drinking. But my son goes through this a lot . . . he won't always check his food, but he's a kid .

@Shavkat I will warn him, or put in ice cubes if it is way too hot . . . but even kids need to learn from these mistakes. Risk management, I believe is what they call it.
