Hello,

I​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ really understand you must be very stressful as you have a burning sensation in your tongue for several months, not to mention inability to eat properly, spicy foods triggering the pain, very low appetite and also quite evident weight loss. But don’t be worry we are here to help you out 😊

YOUR CONCERN AND PROBABLE CAUSES

Your concern The burning sensation on the tongue is more than 6 months Severe burning when eating spicy foods Very low appetite Difficulty in eating Weight loss No relief from previous medicines

Long-term irritation may also be related to:

Gastritis / acid reflux Anxiety & stress Tobacco / gutka use Poor oral hygiene Fungal infection (oral candidiasis)

Your weight loss and very low appetite are signs that the body is not getting enough nutrients which is making the burning and tissue depletion cycle even worse.

INTERNAL MEDICATION

1. Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp at night with warm water (Neutralizes excess Pitta, reduces burning & acidity)

2. Kamdudha Ras (Plain) – 1-0-1 with honey or water (The best medicine for burning sensation & Pitta disorders)

3. Drakshasava – 20 ml-0-20 ml after food (Improves appetite, nourishes tissues & counters weight loss)

4. Shatavari Capsule – 1-0-1 with milk (Relieves internal heat & nourishes mucosal lining)

5.Amalaki Rasayan – 1 tsp daily (Helps the oral mucosa, improves digestion & immunity)

If fungal infection is suspected, a specific treatment will be required after a proper oral examination.

EXTERNAL CARE

Mouth rinsing (Kavala / Gandusha) twice daily with Triphala wate Or plain water

Applying ghee or coconut oil on tongue locally before sleep for soothing effect

Strict oral hygiene practice Do not use a harsh toothpaste with strong mint or chemicals

HOME REMEDIES

1. Cold milk gargling once daily 2. Misri + ghee (small lick) once daily for tongue cooling 3. Coconut water daily 4. Rice starch water (pej) for nourishment 5. Soaked 5 almonds daily for nutrition support

DIET PLAN

✅ INCLUDE Cold potency foods (but freshly prepared) Rice, moong dal, soft khichdi Buttermilk (not sour) Coconut water Milk, ghee Pomegranate, banana, apple Well-cooked soft vegetables

❌ AVOID Spicy, hot, sour food Pickles, vinegar Fried food Tea, coffee Alcohol, tobacco, gutka Very hot food & drinks

LIFESTYLE TIPS

Avoid stress & anxiety (both worsen Pitta) Eat small, frequent meals Do not stay empty stomach for long Avoid late meals Sleep before 11 pm Avoid excessive talking, shouting, or mouth breathing

INVESTIGATIONS NEEDED

As this is a chronic situation with weight loss & poor intake, I am pointing out that you should definitely consider:

CBC (for anemia) Vitamin B12 Serum Ferritin Random Blood Sugar Thyroid Profile Oral examination by dentist/ENT If required: Upper GI endoscopy

By doing the right cooling therapy, fixing digestion, rebuilding nutrition and avoiding the irritants, most patients experience a great deal of relief from the burning together with return of appetite within 3–5 weeks.

Weight regain usually comes after eating gets better.

⚠️ Please, do not keep overlooking this situation, as long-standing burning mouth with weight loss always requires proper investigation along with treatment.

Warm Regards, Dr Snehal ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌Vidhate

HELLO,

You have three major issues

A) BURNING SENSATION ON TONGUE (burning mouth syndrome/pittaja disorder) This usually happens when pitta in the body becomes very high. Because pitta resides in the mouth and stomach, excess heat leads to -red, burning sensation on tongue -inability to eat spicy/hot foods -dryness or rawness in mouth -sensitive taste buds

WHY DOES PITTA RISE? -eating spicy, sour, fried food -stress and anxiety (major trigger for burning mouth) -nutrient deficiencies (B12, iron, folate) -Gastric acidity/ reflux -Long term medication use -hormonal changes -lack of sleep -excess tea, coffee -smoking/alcohol

B) LOW APPETITE Your digestive fire is currently weak because chronic burning and irritation reduces your natural desire to eat

YOU EXPERIENCE -no hunger -early fullness -weakness -aversion to food

C) WEIGHT LOSS Since you are unable to eat properly, your body is using its stored reserves-> leading to weight loss

Ayurveda calls this dhatukshaya (tissue depletion)

Burning tongue, or burning mouth syndrome, can be quite bothersome and, when persistent, contributes to weight loss due to difficulty in eating. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this issue is often related to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, particularly when it comes to excess heat or digestive fire (Agni).

Firstly, it’s key to tackle the Pitta imbalance. Opt for cooling foods and drinks like coconut water, aloe vera juice, or buttermilk. Avoid spicy, sour, and excessively salty foods, as they can aggravate Pitta. Eating a ripe banana with a teaspoon of ghee could also help soothe the burning sensation.

Include bitter and astringent foods such as leafy greens, and pomegranate. These can naturally calm Pitta and reduce the burning sensation in the tongue. Herbal teas made from coriander or fennel seeds might provide relief. You can make these by boiling a teaspoon of seeds in a cup of water and straining it before drinking. This is to be consumed twice daily.

Pay attention to your oral hygiene – consider using an Ayurvedic mouthwash prepared with Triphala which can be soothing. Gargling with a decoction of fennel seeds, or licorice root could also be beneficial. Licorice is especially valued in Ayurveda for its cooling nature and soothing properties.

Ensure you’re having meals at consistent times to balance your Agni and help with digestion. Incorporate relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga that may reduce stress, a known contributor to exacerbating oral conditions.

If symptoms persist, and weight loss continues, it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions. A personalized assessment, including potential dietary adjustments based on your specific Prakriti, would be advisable if no relief is noted. Take special care and prioritize seeing your healthcare professional to ensure there’s no deeper issue.

Burning sensations on your tongue along with weight loss can be indicative of a pitta imbalance in the body, possibly affecting your agni, or digestive fire. This imbalance might be causing inflammation and affecting your ability to absorb nutrients, leading to weight loss as well. Here’s how you can address this:

First, focus on bringing pitta back into balance. Start by avoiding hot, spicy, oily, and acidic foods such as chilies, tomatoes, vinegar, and fermented items. Instead, favor cooling and soothing foods like cucumbers, melons, and coconut. Drinking fresh coconut water daily can help reduce heat and provide hydration.

Herbal remedies may also be beneficial. Triphala, in particular, with its balancing properties, can help improve digestive health. Take it before bed, using either powder mixed in warm water or in capsule form. Just ensure it’s in moderation—you don’t want to disturb your vata dosha in the process.

Applying a bit of honey mixed with cardamom powder directly onto the tongue may also ease burning sensations. This remedy can be used two to three times a day, ensuring you are gentle when applying it. Note, honey should be avoided if you have any sugar concerns.

Since weight loss is a concern, enhancing your agni is crucial. Sipping on herbal teas like fennel or mint throughout the day can support digestion. Also, small meals that are warm and nourishing can help in building your strength gradually.

Also, it might be wise to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider directly to rule out any underlying conditions that might need immediate attention, especially as you’ve experienced weight loss. Your symptoms may require closer investigation and a more detailed treatment approach tailored to your individual needs.
