just wondering when you get vapors tongue do you just wait it out and keep hydrated while avoiding vaping or do you do something else for example change out the flavors and continue to vape...or chew on gum and continue to vape the same flavor...ect

i heard there are alot of people who go through it and it only happens a few times or maybe even once and eventually you can taste again, i may be scared i have vapors tongue i doubt it but who knows...i can't taste any vapes i recently bought outside of premium juice that are high PG...

Switch flavors. I, like many others here, run multiple tanks at the same time. I take one RBA off and stick another on. I do drink water, too. Just to keep hydrated and washing my mouth.

I just went through my RTA collection for DIY testing and I have 19 that I think will do good for testing flavors. Eight of them currently have juice in them so that leaves 11. If I finish the juice in some of them I will add 3-4 more to be available for juice testing. I make 5ml samples, so I just fill up tanks and vape the samples at different times. My taste buds tend to change a lot.

Get RTAs that match your vape wants. Clouds or flavor.

I find that lemon water works for me. Lemon is a natural palette cleanser and cures my vapers' tongue in a heartbeat.
Get some fresh lemons add a few slices to your water and Viola! It tastes good, quenches thirst, keeps you hydrated and your flavors taste brand new.
As always, Vape On!

Ah, vaper's tongue. Vape the liquids that you really don't care for during this dreaded time. Mine lasted about two weeks. Tried a lot of the recommended remedies... nope, nada, didn't work for me. It just was time that did it for me.

I don't know why some get it and some don't. I tried to do all the stuff to not get it: switching up flavors, keeping hydrated, brushing the tongue when I brushed my teeth etc....

The good news, usually you only get that condition once. I got it about 4 months after I started vaping. I haven't had it since. Been vaping for almost 4 years now. :)

I haven't switched flavors in forever. Same liquid flavor for over a year now. :D Again, what works for me may not work for others.

Sorry that you are going through this but this too shall pass. Patience :)

did you vape through it personally? or did you stop and wait it out? i'm trying to stop and wait it out o.0 but idk it's a bit depressing honestly...i feel liking going back to hookah smoking which im trying to get away from...i can vape through it if won't affect anything...but i go through like 30ml a day o.0 and all my flavors are stuff i used to enjoy...

I vaped through it. It was either vaping through it or go back to smoking and that was not going to happen. Since I had already read about it, I knew it wouldn't last.
