Hot tea or delicious hot soup is served and you've already slightly burned your tongue. Very unpleasant, but there are home remedies to alleviate this pain:
Home remedies for a burned tongue
Honey for a burned tongue
Let a teaspoon of honey melt on your tongue; it has an antibacterial effect and relieves the pain.
Lemon juice for a burned tongue
If you drip lemon juice onto the affected area immediately, the tongue calms down and the pain subsides instantly.
Yogurt for a burned tongue
Cooling is good for a burned tongue, so a spoonful of cool yogurt helps. Simply place it on your tongue and let it cool for a bit.
Water for the burned tongue
Immediately after burning your tongue, keep a sip of cold water in your mouth on your tongue to cool it down. The wound is not only cooled but also rinsed well.
Chamomile tea for a burned tongue
Prepare a chamomile tea and let it cool down. Let the tea sit on your tongue for a while before swallowing. Chamomile also has a disinfecting effect and protects against inflammation.
Cold butter or margarine helps with a burned tongue
Let a small piece of butter or margarine melt on the injured tongue.
