Help please? how long till a burn heals on your tongue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Burned tongue: With normal burns from hot food, you should feel substantially better within a few days. It does depend however on the degree and extent of the burn along with your own pain threshold. Avoid hot, spicy and acidic foods meanwhile. Feel better soon.
