I burned my tongue drinking too much hot chocolate this week. Anyone have any tips for fixing it? Other than time :p

I don't think you can do much about it.

But like Dov said, ice cubes might help.
I'd rather leave it the way it is than walk around with ice cubes in my mouth all day :p
 
basically when you burn your tongue on something, you strip off a few layers of taste buds. when they die, they normally grow back in 2-3 days.
all i can say is avoid really hot foods, drink lots of water to keep hydrated, and don't eat anything too rough in texture

Time is about the only thing that works. FWIW injury to the tongue usually heals quickly.

my boyfriend bit entirely through his tongue when he was little. as fasr as i can tell, there are um, no signs of scarring

:shady:
