Talk:Transient lingual papillitis

Clarification

"Lie bumps are caused from the same virus as herpes(taste buds) by sharp food or teeth." makes no sense. The citation is a dead link. Overall this article is extremely unhelpful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.182.149.81 (talk) 04:58, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Moving this page

Per WP:MEDMOS#Naming conventions I am moving this page. We should not be using the common name but the name most commonly used in recent medical publications. On pubmed, I found no use of the phrase "lie bumps", but there was 7 for "transient lingual papillitis" http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=%22transient+lingual+papillitis%22

One of the sources using the term "eruptive lingual papillitis" http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=%22eruptive+lingual+papillitis%22 gives no other hits for that phrase. After reading the article it is not clear if the authors were referring to the same condition as the papers for transient lingual papillitis.

I question whether this page could be better dealt with on the glossitis page? Lesion (talk) 23:07, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

We had a one sentence stub for eruptive lingual papillitis, saying it was an acute stomatitis. Made it into a redirect, based upon the logic that this article says that they are synonyms. If this is faulty logic, please someone separate the pages again at some point, and the article here could do with the synonym being removed if so. Lesion (talk) 12:43, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Alt med treatments

Sah7861, QuiteUnusual: not sure if this edit should have been removed entirely. The treatments in question are marked as "alternative" and therefore do not require a scientific source as long as they are mentioned in the tone "some unscientific sources state that this is how to treat this condition" rather than "this treatment works for this condition". At this stage this very underdeveloped article should welcome expansion with an alternative remedies section, seeing as it is such a harmless condition there are no real medical treatments anyway it seems. Agree sources are poor, prefer at least book sources.

Worth mentioning that warm salt water would have mild antiseptic effect,[1] (although this condition is not an infection so arguably this is useless); and somewhat ironically we have a robust medical source over on mouthwash[2] stating that a potential side effect of hydrogen peroxide mouthwash is enlargement of the lingual papilla (i.e. hydrogen peroxide is known to create what could easily be considered "lie bumps" rather than treat it). Would arguably be appropriate to mention this at same time as hydrogen peroxide.

However the statement "All the natural ingredients very effective for lie bumps treatment which causes no side effects." would be inappropriate since it is making a claim of treatment efficacy and therefore requires a robust medical source (see WP:MEDRS), and currently there is no source provided for this claim at all.

Using new sources for better information

This article still contains weasel words and unclear, poorly organized information that needs to be fixed. I have found several papers on Google Scholar that perhaps the pros can use to improve it. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S107921049680312X - the research from which the term TLP originated http://europepmc.org/abstract/med/19774866 http://web.a.ebscohost.com/abstract?direct=true&profile=ehost&scope=site&authtype=crawler&jrnl=00336572&AN=119586096&h=O2sUIKwhbr9GqXcIx1MJA40nRWpkluBWyMDKzvKno%2bZBYhejtetaJJYGWI8%2bZocuI%2f767Lr3W0czVXTJ3Clupg%3d%3d&crl=c&resultNs=AdminWebAuth&resultLocal=ErrCrlNotAuth&crlhashurl=login.aspx%3fdirect%3dtrue%26profile%3dehost%26scope%3dsite%26authtype%3dcrawler%26jrnl%3d00336572%26AN%3d119586096 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bossalicious (talk • contribs) 13:38, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
