Glossodynia

Short characteristic of a disease

The glossodynia is understood as pains in the field of language without its any visible changes. The disease a glossodynia – strictly for the second time, that is it always never is a consequence of neurosises, problems with a liver, operative measures, but - an independent disease. Respectively, the glossodynia disappears right after the basic disease is cured. Most often problems arise at persons 40 years are more senior, and at men of pain of language it is observed 6 times less often, than at women.

Glossodynia reasons

• traumatization of language or mucous membrane of an oral cavity the teeth which are incorrectly established by prostheses, foreign objects;
• frustration of vegetative system;
• digestive tract diseases;
• vascular defeats;
• disturbances of activity of the central nervous system;
• encephalitis;
• disturbances of cerebral circulation.

By results of numerous researches, the glossodynia which symptoms amplify under the influence of external irritants affects the wandering and glossopalatine nerves that leads to emergence of false sensations. At the same time, any irritating and injuring signs completely are absent that often complicates statement of the correct diagnosis.

Glossodynia – symptoms and a clinical picture

Patients with the diagnosis a glossodynia complain of tingling, a sadneniye, burning sensation in the field of language. Unpleasant feelings can carry both periodic, and constant character. Intensity of pains increases at reception of spicy food and under the influence of some other external irritants. So, for example, the symptomatology almost always accrues after reexhaustions and stresses. If at the diagnosis the treatment glossodynia for any reason drags on, then symptoms of a disease steadily progress, resulting in constant dryness in a mouth, bulimia, to alimentary increase in body weight, bystry fatigue during the conversation. Problems with excess weight are caused by the fact that the glossodynia for a while disappears after meal therefore people aim to eat at once when developing pains.

Burning and discomfort usually appear on side zones of language, occasionally – on a root and a back of body. Let's notice also that the glossodynia has no accurately isolated defeat center therefore localization of unpleasant feelings can change. Sometimes the glossodynia passes by itself, but much more often patients nevertheless need medical care.

As we already spoke above, changes of an oral cavity and mucous language completely are absent. Seldom or never at patients insignificant puffiness, or a plaque on a language surface is shown. At elderly people the glossodynia is followed by a varicosity of veins.

The glossodynia can be revealed also on some indirect signs. In particular, the sick person begins to be depressed often and suffers from hyperexcitability, uneasiness, suspiciousness. Also he pays special attention to trifles and flies into a rage in the most insignificant occasions.

Because of changes of a mental state many patients refuse the help of doctors or practice treatment of a glossodynia folk remedies, forgetting about the recommended therapeutic procedures. It is the wrong approach as the disease considered by us signals about more serious problems in an organism and therefore untimely statement of the correct diagnosis often leads to serious effects and complications.

Glossodynia – treatment of a disease

First of all, doctors have to carry out full sanitation of a mouth. The patient is examined surely by the stomatologist who in case of need replaces incorrectly established prostheses and adjusts bite height. Measures for normalization of a mental condition of the patient are at the same time undertaken. Tranquilizers, drugs of bromine and a valerian, trimekainovy blockade of a lingual nerve, an injection of vitamins can help with it. The glossodynia which treatment is carried out by means of blockade passes much quicker therefore in recent years they are applied in increasing frequency.

If pains too strong, to patients appoint local anesthetics, applications and oral trays. Drugs on the basis of vegetable raw materials will be especially effective in this case, however treatment of a glossodynia folk remedies all the same has to be carried out under constant control of doctors. Let's add also that from unpleasant symptoms of a glossodynia physiotherapeutic procedures and acupuncture well help.
