I had surgery and radiation for tongue cancer 3 years ago and there's spots in my tongue that hadn't healed. My surgery and radiation left me with dry mouth from destroying the salivary glands under my tongue and spots that constantly burned and were so painful. I'd read in here about ginger being anti inflammatory and had my husband take it for his sciatica. I started drinking ginger tea and it soothed my tongue a little. About three weeks ago I tried just putting the dry ginger powder in the agonizingly painful spots and have continued with about 3 doses a day since. My pain level is way down, it's helped me get more saliva from the upper gland and I really think the spots are finally healing. Thanks earth clinic for everything you've helped me and my husband with.
