Sore tongue??

[Sec]

Just wondering if anyone has had this issue before. I noticed it yesterday that my tongue felt a bit numb/sore or maybe like it feels the day after you burn it on hot pizza or something like that. Anyone??

Yes for a short while but only a few days about 2 weeks in. Since then its been fine.

I didn't but my Mom did. Her tongue was very red and irritated. I did a lot of searching, and read a bunch of posts on things to try but after a couple weeks it improved on it's own.

Yes, I've noticed the same thing, from time to time. I just make sure to "aim" more towards the sides and it has gone away quite quickly. I assume it's just the nicotine. I've gotten juice on my lips before and that gives a bit of a burning/numbing/sore sensation, as well.

Happened to me last night. I ate a little cold applesauce, and let it sit on my tongue for a minute. Also drank two bottles of water. I had spent most of the day vaping and not drinking enough water.
Felt fine this a.m..

I experienced a sore tongue- and realised it had to do with the nic strength, at least from my experience. I do suffer from dry tongue from time to time, but ever since I had my spell with loss of taste- I've been very careful to stay hydrated whilst vaping. Ever since, I have not had hardly a problem with a sore tongue or dry mouth. I've tried the various forms of Biotene, and they offer temporary relief. I found it most effective to use at night just before bed. Maybe try to lower the nic in your juice, that may help. But I think the bottom line is to keep sipping water or some sort of liquid during vaping.

I also noticed that when I first started vaping and making the transition from analogs to vaping, I had some sore tongue issues as my body was adjusting to the change.

Mouth sores are not generally caused by nicotine strength. It usually has to do with the flavorings in the liquid.

Using Colgate Peroxyal has helped quite a few vapers get the sores to heal more quickly.

I found a correlation between nic strength and a sore/dry tongue (through experimentation), regardless of what flavour I was using. That was my personal experience. I have not gotten mouth sores... not yet anyway. Learned to keep hydrated at all times.

I got that exact problem when I started vaping at 18mg w/ 100% PG juice

Nicotine is a skin irritant

100% PG lets through the most flavor, most nicotine TH, most nicotine irritation

You can

- use lower nic

- use juices with some VG in them (I use 20% or less VG in cartos, 0-50% on normal non-tan attys, tanks and reservoir cartos like 30% or less Vg but may work with thinner 50/50 juices)

- use cartomizer + drip tip as a mouthpiece to bring in the vapor in a wider less concentrated stream

... and always, always, drink a TON of water. Dehydration (which is what that sounds like to me) causes all kinds of weird, uncomfortable things to happen to the body.

Now ... go drink some water!

Any time anyone has any sort of an issue, people immediately tell them to reduce nicotine strength for some odd reason.
