An interesting video about what events can happen in a person’s life if he bites his tongue in a certain place.

Despite the fact that the signs that have come down to us from time immemorial seem naive and unscientific, many people continue to believe in them, relying on folk wisdom. After all, the sensations that the subconscious sends to the body at certain moments in life are still not fully understood. Therefore, if you bite your tongue painfully, it is better to remember the meaning of this sign and this will help avoid unpleasant consequences.

Medical opinion

After a bite, a wound remains on the tongue, sometimes there is a lot of bleeding, and swelling occurs. The muscular organ is penetrated by blood vessels. If bleeding begins, apply a clean bandage to the wound, squeeze, and leave for 5-10 minutes. To relieve swelling, place a piece of ice in gauze.

In case of severe pain, apply a cotton swab soaked in lidocaine or drops containing an anesthetic to the wound. You can dilute hydrogen peroxide with water 1:1 and rinse your mouth. The solution should be spat out and should not be swallowed. For quick healing, after the wound heals, rinse your mouth with salted water. Ratio: 200 ml warm water and 1 tsp. salt.

If the bitten area becomes infected, the tongue turns red, or the body temperature rises, consult a doctor. Typically, injuries to a muscle organ are minor and heal on their own. Deep wounds require stitches.

Be sure to go to the clinic if the bleeding does not stop, the bite is infected, the wound is too large, the tongue is red, or severe swelling appears.

• you were told gossip that has not the slightest confirmation;
• other people are discussing your interlocutor.

Phraseological turnover

A stable combination of words or, in other words, a phraseological unit, is characteristic of the Russian language. Speech takes on bright colors and becomes juicy, like a ripe apple under the summer sun. But, for example, among foreigners this kind of phrase can cause some difficulty in translation and understanding, since it is impossible to literally translate a phraseological unit, since its real meaning is lost. Such “special” expressions include the phrase “bite your tongue.” The meaning of the phraseological unit can be reduced to the following: shut up.

How to cure stomatitis on the tongue?

At the first signs of stomatitis, specialists at the LeaderStom clinic recommend contacting a dentist for diagnosis and prescribing appropriate treatment. A person’s attempt to cope with a stomatitis disease that appears on the tongue on his own may not only not lead to the desired result, but on the contrary, increase the symptoms of the disease. The drugs that are used to treat stomatitis on the tongue can be divided into local therapy drugs and medicinal formulations that have a general effect on the human body. Let's take a closer look at each of these forms.

Treatment of stomatitis with local therapy:

• Treatment of stomatitis ulcers on the human tongue with antiseptic gels, ointments and sprays.
• Rinsing the mouth with antiseptic solutions, which can be purchased at the pharmacy (chlorhexidine, miramistin, etc.) or prepared yourself using medicinal herbs such as chamomile or calendula.
• In order to relieve the pain symptom, doctors recommend using local preparations containing lidocaine for a person with stomatitis formations on the tongue.

General therapy for stomatitis:

Depending on the cause that provoked the stomatitis disease, antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal or antihistamines are used. Such drugs are prescribed to a person only by a dentist or therapist. To relieve the symptoms of stomatitis, modern antipyretic and painkillers are used.

Taking vitamin complexes allows you to compensate for the lack of essential microelements in the body, which for one reason or another a person does not receive with food, and vitamin deficiency, as is known, is one of the factors that can provoke stomatitis on the oral mucosa and tongue.

For stomatitis, immunomodulatory drugs are also used - drugs that increase human immunity. They can be of both plant and medicinal origin. All patients, regardless of the reasons that caused stomatitis on the tongue, are recommended by doctors to take these medications.

Drugs are also used to treat somatic diseases. The use of such remedies is necessary if the cause of stomatitis on the tongue lies inside the body. Chronic diseases of certain systems, and especially the human gastrointestinal tract, weaken the body and contribute to the launch of an immune reaction, manifested in the formation of stomatitis ulcers on the palate and tongue.
