Sos! a few hours ago, i by mistake took a big sip of very hot tea & burnt my mouth, tongue & throat. everything feels pained & inflamed. what can i do?

Swish: Swishing with coconut oil is safe and effective for mild burns and immediate relief. It's important to spit out anything that is swished in the mouth. If the burns are deep I recommend being seen in person by your provider ASAP!
