hello. I’m Dr. Sangchul Hwang, who studies and treats autonomic nerves. I’d like to introduce you to a patient who has been suffering from burning mouth sensation for a long time, starting from her teenage years without any specific cause. At first, she thought it was a temporary symptom and that it would go away naturally over time, but the pain gradually became recurrent and at some point it became a daily occurrence. The burning sensation in her mouth, burning tongue, and discomfort in her oral mucosa affected her ability to eat, talk, and concentrate, and over time it became a psychological burden.
You can learn more about the experience and treatment process in our patient interviews.
Burning mouth is a condition that often goes unrecognized and suffered alone, as there are no outward signs of an abnormality. However, with the right approach, this condition can be managed. We hope this gives you a little hope and help if you are suffering from long-standing pain that is interfering with your daily life. Thank you.
