ST Diagnosis: I think I might be allergic to my own saliva.

Posted by Inigo (aka Inigo) Oct 7 '22, 05:27

A couple of times in the past few weeks, I'll be laying in bed in the morning, and either lick my lips or put them together, and they'll start burning. Then they'll puff up. Parts of the inside of my mouth will swell up, too. One time is was the space between my mouth and chin as well.

It happened again this morning, and I look like I just had collagen injections. At first, I thought it might be the dry cleaning we had done to our comforter and pillow cases, but this was our back up set this morning. I think my skin is allergic to the morning breath/saliva that I have. So weird!

Responses:

It would be pretty random to suddenly become allergic to your saliva. I would start writing down everything you eat and drink or put in/on your mouth. - sycor Oct 7, 06:12

- I'm sorry! That sounds way worse. I hope they figure it out. - Inigo Oct 7, 05:50
Is there any food or drink you’ve consistently had the nights before? Also too much salt could probably do that too. -- nm - mafic Oct 7, 05:38 6
- Not really. I generally don't eat at night or drink. Last night we went to a hibachi restaurant. I did have edamame with salt. - Inigo Oct 7, 05:48 5
  - Toothpaste allergy? -- nm - mafic Oct 7, 05:55 4
    - I've been using the same the type of Crest for about 10 years. Maybe something with the electric toothbrush... -- nm - Inigo Oct 7, 05:57 2
      - You can develop sensitivities to things after weird amounts of time. Or maybe they slightly changed ingredients. Change it up! -- nm - mafic Oct 7, 06:06 1
        
        I need to get a new toothbrush anyway. I'll buy a new brand of toothpaste, too. Thanks! -- nm - Inigo Oct 7, 06:29
    - that's the first thing I was asked. any change to toothpaste or mouth wash? -- nm* - decline Oct 7, 05:57
