WELCOME TO HCM,

TINGLING OF MOUTH ALONG WITH NUMBNESS AND GULPING PROBLEMS CAN BE SECONDARY TO DEFICIENCY OF B-COMPLEX VITAMINS IN DIET,PARTICULARLY VITAMIN B12.

COEXISTENT ACID REFLUX SHOULD ALSO PROMPTLY BE TREATED WITH TAB PANTOPRAZOLE 40mg ONCE A DAY.

REGULAR INTAKE OF B COMPLEX VITAMINS CAN REDUCE THESE ORAL MANIFESTATIONS.

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR FOR FURTHER QUERIES.
THANK YOU
