Burnt Mouth what remedy
6 Answers
Having just put a piece of pizza in my mouth and finding the cheese was as hot as molten lead (or nearly !) I now have a huge blister in the roof of my mouth. Do I burst it ?

(These days they tell you not to stick a cut finger in your mouth for this very reason).The skin on the blister itself won't fully prevent this happening, as burned skin is permeable to bacteria, but it will slow them down. It may be best to see your doctor about it, as the burn could lead to blood poisoning - I had this happen once after burning my mouth on scalding soup.
