Burning Pain In Mouth And Tongue After Taking Amino Acids And Chromium. Is It Due To Medicines?

I have been taking amino acids for about two months. The past 3-4wks, I have developed burning in my mouth and tongue and wonder if they are related. I also realized that I was taking additional Chromium (that was in my aminos), so I am trying to figure out what might be causing my mouth soreness.

Hello,
As such amino acids does not cause these kind of side effects like burning sensation in mouth and tongue.
The burning sensation you are feeling can be because of some oral disease like
- Oral Thrush or
-lichen planus
In both the diseases you feel burning sensation in tongue. In case of Thrush you have to start with some antifungal and in lichen planus you start with some antioxidants.
You have to visit some good dentist for proper treatment.
