it was really hot today and my mouth was dry so I grab my ice cube tray and I put 1 ice cube in my mouth but it got stuck on my inside bottom lip I rip it off and then a few seconds later it was bleeding like crazy, I found out I had a few open wounds of skin(gums???) it was
just unreal to me, so ignore it and ate spicy sauce with my taco and it sting. So I try using mouth wash it sting again... please help next time when I try to rip off the ice lol I learn to not do that and I'm scared to even have 1 ice cube haha!

Hello, Anon,

Thank you for posting.

You had an ice burn for lack of a better phrase. If you are concerned or it's still bleeding, see your doctor. Otherwise, it will heal on its own. Avoid mouth wash and spicy or citrusy foods until it heals. It's not a good idea (IMO) to suck on ice cubes. Or put ice directly on the skin, though some ppl do this.
