I’ve mentioned before that I have a lot of trouble with my mouth and I wondered if anyone else has a scalloped tongue? Mine is pretty much constantly slightly swollen with teeth indentations around the side.

Could that be a sign of Sjögren’s?l have a cracked tongue with teeth marks sometimes.I hate the fact that our bodies may have “cross flare ups”meaning for example 2 flares from 2 different things at the same time.l always just thought l was biting my tongue in my sleep.Talk to you dr about it and how uncomfortable it makes you feel.l hope you get answers and get something to help you feel better.

Yes, I do.
I am yet to be diagnosed with lupus but have a goitre.

I feel for you! I suffered with that for years but knock on wood haven't had to deal with it for last few. Zantac 150 helps if taken twice daily

Thanks for checking back in @A MyLupusTeam Member 💜 I hope the steroid cream works for you. I’m not taking any medications so not sure what’s making my tongue swell. Maybe just another random symptom that comes with this disease! Take care x
