It has been 30+ days since I finished rad tx. I am finally able to eat soups, gravy laden meats, veggies, pudding, ice cream....you get the picture. For the last few days while eating, I have little bumps pop up in my mouth. It doesn't matter if the food is hot or cold. They usually go away with an hour but it feels like I have food stuck to my gums or the roof of my mouth. These bumps are localized to the right side which was the main target of my treatments. Has anyone had this problem or heard of this being an issue?
