Treating Geographic Tongue- Steroids are not the Answer!
Many “experts” will tell you, ”Geographic tongue is a common tongue problem that normally responds to topical steroids” they often add “antifungal and antibacterial medications may be used for symptomatic cases and topical or systemic cortisone or prednisone may also be effective”.
In other words, spread some steroid paste on your tongue and it will look better.
At first you may think “that sounds good… maybe I have finally found a cure for this problem!”
But if you listen carefully… the next statement you hear the “experts” say should send up bright Red warning flags and clanging alarms! “We do not know the cause of geographic tongue and treatment does not permanently cure it”.
Wait a minute what’s that, you say? Throw some steroids at it and maybe it will go away, for a little while? Aren’t steroids dangerous? Read the rest of this entry »
Is There a Cure for Geographic Tongue?
Nope! At least that is what the Doctors say!
Ask any doctor… and he will tell you that there is no cure for Geographic Tongue.
Then he will hasten to add that it is “Benign”… meaning it won’t kill you.
But that’s little consolation if it’s your tongue that is an ugly mass of bald patches, white rings, cracks or whatever. In the next few minutes, I’m going to “give it to you straight” “pull no punches” because you deserve to know the truth and you may not get it anywhere else.
Just because Doctors say Geographic Tongue is incurable doesn’t mean there’s no hope.Let me explain. When a doctor tells you it is “incurable” all he means is that he doesn’t have a “magic bullet” for it.
After all not long ago infections were “incurable”…
but then along came penicillin and everything changed.
What your doctor doesn’t know is that…
Geographic Tongue is Different
