VERY dry mouth!?


Question:
My mouth and throught is very dry. This started 30 mins ago when I was thinking about my fear of swallowing my tounge. Please help!! WHATS GOING ON??!!

Answers:
Drink a glass of water to ease the dryness in your mouth and THROAT.

By the way, why are you afraid of swallowing your tongue? It's firmly attached inside your mouth.
mind over matter..
try drinking alot more water!! and if it continues..see your doctor!!
your probably going to die. this happened to my friend an hour before he died... his mouth and throught became very dry.
first, don't send yourself into a panic attack about it. get some water, soda or gum. the gum works the best because it makes your mouth secrete saliva. are you on medications. most medications cause dry mouth.
congratulations, you asked the only question genetic guy could answer with that pic. good job.its like his lottery.
are you on drugs? if so, wait till you come down and you'll be alright.

Swollowing your tongue; one of the older myths around. Unless you bite or cut it off it will not go down. Swollowing your tongue refers mostly to it dropping back slightly when your on your back sleeping or with an altered level of consciousness and causing a partial or even complete (though rare) obstruction of the airway. This causes snoring! You can't just swollow your tongue. Drink some water and keep some aroound for sipping on. Don't drink a gallon like someone else suggested as it could dilute out you electrolytes and cause serious problems. I'd also seek help for a psych doctor to help rid yourself of these fears.
Your tongue is attatched by a little flap of "webbing" like what's between a ducks "toes" Look ing the mirror, lift your tongue and look, that thing that's in the middle, that's the thing, it keeps your tongue firmly attatched where it belongs, unless you get that cut, you're fine, BTW, fun fact, your tongue REALLY starts at the back of your throught, so your tongue is on there good, otherwise you'd probably have already swallowed it. . . .hope I helped!
