Why does my tongue get sore after taking multi vitamin tablets of using certain mouthwashes?
I'm a male and having the same problem whenever I take multivitamins. My tongue gets sore after a few days later. And now I'm taking vitamin C tablets and I get the same reaction. It's weird and I'm trying to find out why. Because I'm an Asian or Chinese, I was told that Western tablets is consider hot for your body (like when you eating something deep fried and you get it). I'm not sure that's the case. I told my friends about my tongue reaction after taking these tablets and they told me might be my body allergic to something in the tablets because Multi has a lot of vitamins and might be one of those cause it. I'm trying to figure out so I can avoid this problem and able to continue to take vitamins. Please advice thanks.
