Shingles? Tongue Is Ulcerated - Can't Eat Anything
May 28, 2016
Have had what I thought to be a recurrent kidney infection~pain around the waist and back,Feeling rough. But for the last few weeks I've had pain on right side of face which radiates into my eye and top of head.My eye is constantly watering and itchy and my vision is affected. For the last few nights right side of jaw has been unbearably painful and right side of tongue is ulcerated. Eating and swallowing is almost impossible. The pain keeps me awake and I'm at a loss to know what it is.Nothing eases it. I will need to see my GP next week,but I wondered if anyone has had a similar experience.

Hello! I am a 34 year old woman who has just been diagnosed with shingles. I have had them for about a week and am quite uncomfortable, but not miserable. I have had some stomach pains for a few days that I believe are associated.
One problem I have is in all the information on the net and from doctors they stress the point "you can NOT get shingles from someone with shingles"... well, I disagree. My mother is a non-hodgkin's lymphoma patient who was diagnosed with shingles about two weeks ago. I live by her and help her and I find it hard to believe my shingles didn't come from being exposed to her!
Just wanted to let others know.

I've just been diagnosed with Shingles. I have been told you can't get Shingles from Shingles, only chicken pox from shingles. But I am the third person in work in a week to come down with Shingles. If you can't get Shingles from shingles, how come so many people in work have it?

I have a spot on the left tip of my tongue. It starts as rough irritated papillae and then they disappear to form a bald patch. The overall size is maybe 1/4" wide and a little bit longer, kind of an irregular shape. This spot keeps reoccurring every 1.5-2 months in the exact same spot and is gone within 2 weeks. Does anyone have any clue what this could be?

For 5 weeks now i have been going to doctors who said my white coated tongue is thrush. I have tried nystatin; fluconazole; clotrimazole; gentian violet (1%) tongue coating. All didn't work and the gentian made me sick.Finally my ENT took a tongue and throat swab for culture. The results were e coli. I'm to seek an infection disease specialist doctor. My taste is lousy and sour at times and the throat is sore. What can i take to get rid of this e coli? I'm going to go to another ENT for a tongue and throat culture. I still have some white and bumps on the tongue in the back.

So I drank last night as some know. And today my tongue is new...feels like I burnt it...and I can't taste anything.
I didn't burn it on food. because I didn't eat last night. I just drank. Has anyone else experienced this?
Its probably my Central Nervous system being upset with me.

After 2.5 days taking Trimethoprim my tongue & lips swelled up with so many blisters and mouth ulcers, felt really rotten with a fever... Face swelled up with red blotches - looked like a hamster! Unexplained painful red blotch on left hand.. went to a clinic on Boxing Day - Doctor said lucky I could still breathe properly!!! took antihistamines - not much improvement, dosed up with Paracetamol, Difflam spray and Daktarin mouth gel. Still can't eat properly 6 days later!
DO THESE DRUGS NOT GET TESTED PROPERLY??? - Just read that it is a derivative of a Chemotherapy drug... who wants to take this further? ...

It's been about 2 weeks that my mouth, tongue and lips are burning. No fever and nor runny nose. No coughing, headaches, and any other symptoms.
Today I saw my pharynx and found some red small scratches. I also feel some phlegm coming down from the nose to the throat.
I took a tablespoon of honey and I felt relief.
I'm experiencing a anxiety crisis and I'm wondering whether it could be due to that.
Can you guys give me some orientation?

Have been to multiple doctors. Had every test known in this area. AND still suffering from intense burning of my tongue and even the bottoms of my feet. B12 levels are fine. Take Nexium daily. Has anyone had this and ever found relief? It's a 24 hour thing. And when I wake up/get up my tongue feels like leather and there is a nasty taste in my mouth. Chewing tobacco actually helps. Have to have something in my mouth at all times or it is almost unbearable.

I'm a 29 year old female. When I was about 22/22 I noticed a lump inside my tongue. It is my right hand side just off the center and is about 1cm back from the top. It is hard and feels sausage shaped. It can be felt with my fingers and goes further back into my tongue. I can't feel how far back. I have now noticed a small painless spot underneath My tongue right where the lump is. Recently my throat has felt very achy and strained. I have put this down to anxiety as recently I have been anxious over every little thing and can't stop clenching my jaw but last night felt a lymph node is swollen on that side. I have had a few visits to the go lately with various things (breast lump which turned out was from finishing breastfeeding, pain in lower left abdomen which I'm in the process of putting a sample in and going back next week to see about a scan and the other week I went with pain, muscle twitching and weakness mainly down my right side which I'm supposed to be seeing another doctor about when she is back off holiday) I think if I go with something else when all these other issues aren't resolved they are going to think I'm attention seeking or a hypochondriac.

My doctor doesn't seem to have a clue what is wrong and has given me antibiotic cream, steroid cream and now antifungal tablets nothing seems to improve. This has been going on for over 3 months and there has been no change.

Last week I burned myself with hot milk. Since now I advise everybody to be careful when drinking hot milk, it is one of the worst things that can happen to your mouth. I have got burns all over my mouth. And now also itchy and irritated tongue. What should I do? Should I go to a doctor?

I'm a 20 year old male, overweight and currently/recently fighting a tooth infection due to an abscessed tooth that had a bad root canal. I recently got the tooth removed and I am now on an antibiotic. 7 day cycle amoxicillin 500 MG.
So for the past three weeks I've been feeling pretty terrible. I'll be very fatigued to the point where I don't want to talk or move my arms, I've been short of breath while seemingly doing nothing, I've had heart palpitations with little to no anxiety. My blood sugar feels like it has been low and my mouth is very very dry. Along with the dry mouth I've had difficulty swallowing and a thick white coating with somewhat large red bumps in the back of my tongue. The front of my tongue also seems to have a white coating but it is much thinner. My muscles have been twitching all over but not non-stop. Some days I'll go almost without it. My muscles are achy and when I workout or play sports they get incredibly tired quickly, and are sore for days. I've also been coughing up small tonsil stones. Any help would be appreciated. I'm on an antibiotic but I do want to stress that I've been feeling this way just before I started the antibiotic.

I am 24 and am suffering with bell's palsy AGAIN. I first had it at the age 18 and also the opposite side which is weird? A couple of weeks ago my 1year old lb accidentally headbutted me and it was 2 days after that the numb tongue and headaches started. Since that my face has drooped as well and can't even close my eye i have 2 young babies and suffer terrible headaches. Im now waiting on an mri to see if there are any fractures on my skull as with a blow to the head can also cause bell's palsy

About 2 years ago I noticed a knot pop up under my right jaw bone. I thought it was a swollen lymph node, and it only really hurt when I swallowed and would start swelling back up every couple months on and off. Recently the knot had been swollen up more, I can always feel it, but it will swell up bigger when I am eating at times. Along with that for the past couple months you can see a sort of swelling or lumps and redness in the back of my throat ( I don't have tonsils) but that is also on the right side. This hasn't gone away at all, even when my throat isn't hurting. I also have swollen glands under my tongue that sometimes swell more and hurt when I eat. My family doctor has put me on two antibiotics, and I did test and was treated for type C strep, but no swelling went away after that.
