A member asked:
The skin underneath my tongue is cut somehow and it hurts a lot, specially when i try eating. is there some medicine i could take or put on it to make it feel better??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cut: Just like a paper cut can be very annoying, and just like a paper cut should heal in just a few days. OTC Orabase-B (with Benzocaine) dabbed on sore spot may numb it. If not fully healed in 2 weeks from onset further examination/evaluationis required.
