What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Mouth And Tongue?

My tongue and front lower part of the inside of my mouth has started tingling.....I did have some spicy food at lunch but I have brushed my teeth well and flossed, I also ate a peanut butter cracker to see if that would help. But it is still tingling, not a lot but enough to be bothersome....

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Tingling sensation in mouth and tongue can be due to allergic reaction to any foods that you have eaten and at times very sour and spicy foods can also be a cause..

So my suggestion is to wait and watch if you do not have any other associated symptoms..

You can take anti allergics and do warm saline gargles..
Suck ice to see if it improves..

In case if it tend to worsen or does not look better at all consult an Oral Physician or an Emergency room and get evaluated..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
