I have mild allergies and as such I find that over the counter medicine such as Benadryl hits the spot. However, recently I've been noticing another symptom that is hard to deal with. That is - Itchy teeth! lol. I suppose itching gums is a better description of my strife. I read somewhere once that this can be an allergy symptom. It sure is irritating. I find myself wanting to stab myself in the gums, but of course that doesn't help anything, just makes it worse.
Do you have any weird symptoms or allergies?
Here's a link from a helpful dentist. :
Do your teeth ever feel itchy? Dr. Flanagan explains the many potential causes underlying this strange sensation and describes how you can relieve it.

I will never understand how teeth could itch - gums yes.

@FayeHazel Probably, that makes more sense LOL - my feet itch in winter from being dry.

@FayeHazel It has to be. What about rinsing with baking soda? My g'mother would say a bit of apple cider vinegar in water to rinse, but she is not typing this.

It is really irritating, and scratching is not an option

I have never had itchy gums or teeth! That's a unique feeling I hope it's just temporary.

Ah thanks dear, me too. Seems to come and go. Certain foods seem to make it worse...

@FayeHazel No, thank goodness. Nice to have him here for an emergency, although he told me he could recommend a good dentist if I need one. Good to know.
How are your gums today?

Ah, seems to be an allergy related symptom, though I hope that you never go through it, it's very irritating

Ah baking soda is a great idea. I should try it. Afraid that you got me there, I am probably over due for a trip to the dentist

I learn something new again. Try chewing on some Tulsie leaves.

Thanks for the suggestion - I believe there is much in nature with curative properties. Though I don't think we have tulsie here...
