OP Supporting Member (50+ posts) Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 71 | I finished 25 radiation treatments on 12/17 and am working on healing. Still have a spot on my tongue that isn't healed so I am still drinking most of my meals but when I have tried to eat I get little blisters (seem to be clear liquid?) on my cheeks by my gums, my lower front lip and on the upper back of my throat. They hurt but are mostly uncomfortable. Any ideas as to what is causing them? They go down within a couple hours and are pretty well gone by the next day but seem to come up every time I try to eat.
I did get about half a chicken leg, a few bites of mashed potatoes and a few spoonfuls of peas but after a little bit my mouth hurts and even the upper throat hurts like it is rubbed and then I realized there was a clear blister there!
Any ideas?
