Hello,
Yes, it is very common to have sore tongue and
sore throat after
radiation therapy. The following are my recommendations:
1) For a sore mouth or throat: Choose foods that are soft, wet, and easy to swallow. Soften dry foods with gravy, sauce, or other liquids.
2) Use a blender to make milkshakes or blend your food to make it easier to swallow.
3) Ask about pain medicine, such as lozenges or sprays that numb your mouth and make eating less painful. Avoid foods and drinks that can irritate your mouth; foods that are crunchy, salty, spicy, or sugary; and alcoholic drinks.
4) Don’t smoke or use tobacco products.
5) For a dry mouth: Drink plenty of liquids because a dry mouth can increase the risk of
tooth decay and mouth infections.
I don't think it is
pernicious anemia. Still you can take tab.
Becosules that contain vitamin B complex daily once for 2 months.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
