Hi All

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

On the side of my mouth where the R/T took place the skin on the inside cheek seems to be alot thicker, different texture and colour around about where the teeth are.

Recently I seem to catch the inside of my cheek with my teeth

I had a scan around 10 days ago on my neck (3 months post treatment), nothing was mentioned about the mouth so i hope it me being paranoid.

Thanks

Hi Tony,
the same thing happened to me in the 6 months following RT. It was quite uncomfortable the way my teeth seemed to catch the inside of the cheek and make it worse. It semed to go slowly over a period of time until I just wasn't aware of it.
Hope this helps
cheers Tony K

Thanks Dave and Tony

I try not to look inside my mouth to often, and then when you do and see the mess your mind starts thinking... you know what I mean.

Hey Tony,
I too have it, on both sides. My teeth kinda leave an imprint in it & i keep getting blood blisters on it too!
You should be aware of any changes though & i think its good to question everything, cuz how would we know any different!?
Just another anomolie to put up with!
All the best,
Michelle

Hi Michelle

Thanks for your postings, re-ensuring i'm not the only one with a mouth that looks like it has been nuked, I spoke to the ENT people and am going to have it checked out next week.
