Yes, excessive salt can lead to tongue sores or irritation. High salt intake may cause dehydration and disrupt the oral mucosa's natural balance, resulting in discomfort or soreness. Additionally, consuming salty foods can irritate existing cuts or lesions on the tongue, exacerbating pain. Moderation in salt consumption is key to maintaining oral health.
