Hello Roxs, Search here for information on symptoms of oral thrush. Many get it as a result of the changes caused by treatments. One of the symptoms is a burning sensation.

Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
