I'm about 16 months post treatment from glossectomy and radiation to tongue, and still have some areas that are very sensitive to spicy foods, carbonated drinks, anything with citric acidity. Actually seems to be getting worse rather than better. Any clues? Nothing visible in that area, no white patches, color difference. I'm stumped.
