Suggest Remedies For Persistent Constipation And Tongue Burn

My tongue feels like it s been burned and my taste buds are super sensitive to some spices. I have persistent constipation, but eat properly. My iron has also been low, so I m on an iron supplement. I visit doctors regularly, but not with the tongue issue, yet

Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
Persistant constipation leads to damage to normal intestinal bacteria (the lactobacilli) - which are responsible for normal gut action&Bcomplex synthesis in our body.
The mouth symptoms you have with burning sensation to tangue /super sensitiveness of taste buds to spices is due to sore tongue &taste buds (because of lactobacillary depleation)
* Following things would help to solve the problem.
1. Controlling constipation-
- Get your stool checked for possible infection,infestation ,food allergies... If something is wrong.. start with specific treatment to combat it with help of a gastroenterologist.
-Iron tonic can result in constipation as a side effect. Stop iron sulpement till you have improved digestion.,
-Wrong eating habits - stop fast food,over eating,Eat lot of fibers&waterthrough out the day.
-Regular physical exercises with abdominal yoga exercises.
-Start with help of purgative/stool softner as per treating doctor's advise
*With a consistant treatment & self help.... you would get complete relief from the problem.
Thanks.
