Extremely bad burn in mouth?!


Question: Extremely bad burn in mouth?
Long story short
I drank EXTREMELY hot tea to the point where my mouth is peeling and all my taste buds are swollen and i cant taste anything.
What should i do /:

Answers:

When this happens put an ice cube in your mouth immediately to lessen the pain and minimize the swelling and additional irritation that may occur.

Gargle with cold water or eat a frozen ice pop. This will provide temporary relief from minor pain caused by the burn.

Avoid foods that are "sharp" in taste and texture. Spicy foods can increase pain, and sharp foods, such as chips or nut brittle, can aggravate a lesion.

Treat the burn or lesion with an over-the-counter pectin ointment or topical mouth analgesic containing benzocaine. Apply the medication directly to the burn to protect as well as heal.
