Burning Mouth Syndrome Symptoms
10. Acid Reflux
Acid reflux is a condition in which the contents of our stomach are able to escape from the stomach and rise up the esophagus. It causes a burning sensation that can range from being a mild irritation to downright agonizing. It can also be a sign that you have burning mouth syndrome.
Acid reflux is actually a potential cause of the syndrome. As such, it can be easier for a medical professional to identify the problem if acid reflux and symptoms of burning mouth syndrome are present. The symptoms of acid reflux can often be treated with medication and/or a change of diet, but surgery might be necessary in more extreme cases.
