A member asked:

I irritated/burned my inner lip with full strength apple cider vinegar. what can i do to make it feel better? i placed a warm black tea bag on it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Acid burn.: Vinegar is acidic. Tannic acid in tea is acidic. Not an appropriate remedy. Get Orabase-B at your pharmacy. Dab on small amount w q-tip. Call your Dentist for appt ASAP. Dentist may want to prescribe Kenalog (triamcinolone). Take OTC analgesics exactly as directed on package. From now on limit vinegar to cleaning and cooking...it's not a mouth wash.
