Painful mouth

How do you relieve?

  • Hi Hue,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I just wanted to let you know that the nurses have a one-off training day today, but you'll get a response from one of them once they are back.

    If you need anything urgently in the meantime, please call your doctor or NHS 111.

    Best wishes,

  • Hello Hue, and thank you for posting.

    I am sorry you are having problems with a painful mouth, and I hope that you have told the doctors involved in your care.

    I am not sure if you have cancer or are having treatment. But do discuss your painful mouth with a medical professional and whatever the situation they will hopefully be able to help you. If you want to get back to us with more information, or other questions, you know where we are.

    I've added our website page on mouth problems and cancer if useful.

    You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.

    Take care,

    Sarah.
