A member asked:
The tip of my tounge feels numb, but isn't numb, if that makes sense. i don't think i have bitten it and i haven't burned it. what could cause this?

I don't understand: Not sure what "numb but not numb" means. Doesn't sound like anything too serious if there are no other symptoms. You might ask again if symptoms worsen.
