Biting The Inside Of Cheeks
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have recently started biting the inside of one cheek and to say the least it hurts like hell. i have become aware of a few other parkinsons afflicted people with the same problem and my Neurologist sai d its not umcommon as swallowing is such a complex task.
Anyone have a solution ? What appears to work best for me is chew slowly with small amounts of food on the other sideof my mouth. Not helping matters is the fact i have had 3 teeth remove this year.
