tongues heal quickly so try to avoid salty foods (salt on an open wound so to speak). there are some over-the-counter glycerin/peroxide products that your pharmacist can recommend to rinse your mouth but it will not speed up the healing. that is still going to take a few days. your medical provider can call in some viscous lidocaine to hold in your mouth and then spit out. this will temporarily numb your tongue lips cheeks throat and just about any oral mucous surface. it will provide some temporary relief if you are interested in using it. oral pain meds like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can also help lower that pain threshold. personally you may just decide to "wing it". and that's okay too.
