Is it like a pain, or an itch? If an itch is is allergies. If is is a pain, I am also guessing that maybe you are allergic to something in those specific foods. Just a guess.

I have the exact same problem. I've been searching all over the web and haven't found an answer. Have you gotten any response? Mine is only occasionally, as well, and normally at the first meal of the day.

I experience the same pain. It is infrequent and unpredictable. It is always with the first meal of the day weather that be in the morning at breakfast, or if I don't eat breakfast the first thing I eat, a snack, lunch etc.
I would love to know what this is.

YES! I have the same thing happen, mine is mostly when I eat bread or like a muffin in the morning. Then water usually helps make it go away. Maybe it has something to do with the dryness of the mouth?? But it always hurts on the roof of my mouth and it is bad enough that I have to stop eating.

can I use ora-jell to numb the pain ?

I have a very bad burn on thr roof of my mouth. Its been 5 days and the pain is not easing up. What should I do? I used ora-jel and it hurts burns like hell then the pain goes away for about 10 minutes. Help !!

I have this same thing! I notice it particularly in the areas next to the bump on the roof of my mouth. It is almost always the first time I eat for the day. It is NEVER the same food, and the food can irritate me one day and not the next.

It last usually a minute or two, but I have had it last up to 20 minutes before. I just stop eating and ride it out. Drinking usually just makes it worse for me.

I am very frustrated and looking for answers. If anyone finds out something, please let us know!

I think I have the same thing happening as everyone else but I would describe it as almost like pulling a muscle on the roof of your mouth rather than a burning sensation. Anyone feel that way?

I just had it happen again. It was so bad that I went looking for an answer and found this post. What is going on? Its always the first meal of the day and today it was breaded chicken. I have had problems with oatmeal too.

This is crazy. I have the exact same symptoms. Almost always the first time I eat that day but not every day and sometimes it will go for a very long time with out happening and at other times it is almost daily. Typically I have noticed it with bread, muffins and breaded chicken but the breaded chicken is only at one particular restaurant but not every time I eat there. I have had this on and off for almost 2 years and the doctor is not really sure what to do with me. I have tried a topical Rx that numbs the area but it is so unpredictable as to when it is going to happen, I have no idea if it works or if I just didn't have any symptoms at that particular time. Does anyone think this might be a wheat allergy?

very stange indeed that people are sensing burning sensation on rof of mouth. i just google serached it and found you all.
Here is what i can offer; invisible reflux can cause different things for different people. it has been known to cause burning on roof of mouth. you may not have a stomach burning and not know you have reflux. i suggest and endo to determine.
in my case i am always serching for another reason just in case since reflux is not 100% curable.
Good luck.

I have the same thing and it is only at the first meal of the day. I was thinking it was a wheat allergy too like fredsmom94. When it happens, I find I am eating something with flour (cereal, pizza, breaded chicken). I don't know, but would love to find an answer.

this is crazy because i too Google this problem and seen you all. its not really the first meal i eat but it only occurs when i do eat. i first started to get it a week ago and my main diet usually consist of bread and chicken. but i have had reflux for more then five yrs. dose anyone know if reflux can cause it?

my 10 year old daughter came this morning at 4am complaining that the roof of her mouth was burning. She says it comes and goes during the day...

Any real insights about this? She seems a bit young to be getting reflux...

wow! I never realized other people have been wondering about this too!

I've noticed that if I'm dehydrated and I eat salty foods or dry things..like bread, i get it. This might sound wierd but I also notice small bumps on the area that burns...they go away but it almost seems like my mouth swells...

I have a doctors appointment next week. I'll try and remember to write back and help everyone out!

This happened to me for the first time today so I looked it up and here I am. I was on a long hike today and didn't have much food, and then once I sat down to dinner (chicken tortillas) the room of my mouth starting burning so much that I had to stop. The back part hurts especially badly. I can actually feel the stinging extending into the roots of my teeth! Water seems to help. I hope it's fine tomorrow because I'm still hungry and had to stop eating!!!

I just posted a few hours ago, but I think I may have figured out the cause of my problem: water in my sinuses. I got quite a bit of water up my nose yesterday due to jumping into water feet first from considerable heights, and I remember feeling that burning sensation in my sinuses right after jumping. Then when I tried to eat later in the day, the pain in the roof of my mouth was unbearable.

Today, I looked at the roof of my mouth in the mirror and it is noticeably bruised and discolored. My theory is that all the water shooting up my nose and into my sinuses may have actually bruised the area surrounding the sinus. That would explain why cold liquids make it feel better, right?

Anyway, just a theory. Hope this may help someone!

I think I have the same type of problem. Just came about two days ago. I've been having bad allergy problems for two weeks. Two days ago I went out on a hike (forested area) and when I got to camp that night my allergies started up. Sneezing, stuffy nose, watery eyes. When I went to eat dinner everything hurt the roof of my mouth so bad it was unbearable. It was a stabbing pain for me though..like a hundred needles going into me. The pain is at the back of my hard palate around a couple of uneven spots (not sure if everyone has those? haha...no idea what they are) Drinking water helps some...just feels like i have to get all the food residue off of the spots before they'll start to feel better. Any food at any time of the day now sets it off. Sometimes those spots feel swollen. That night after hiking was the worse allergies I've ever had that I can remember. I'm assuming this problem is allergy related although I've tried three different allergy medicines and none have helped. Zyrtec, Claritin, and Benedryl Severe Allergy. Whoever finds a solution to this should definitely post back and let us all know

Hey everyone...I just posted yesterday and I good news today. The stabbing pain when I eat is getting better. I've stayed indoors mostly for a few days, have used a netipot to irrigate my sinuses, and have tried not to irritate those spots on the roof of my mouth anymore than necessary. My nose has cleared up so I've also been able to breath out of my nose at night instead of my mouth. Today they are still a little sore to the touch but foods have not bothered them. So I'm seriously thinking it was allergies. Maybe it was because I had to sleep breathing through my mouth for about a week and had nothing by my bed to moisten my mouth when I'd wake up in the middle of the night with dry mouth. Who knows. Its just a weird coincidence that it happened on the same day I have had the worst allergy attack I can remember...and it is going away as my nose and eyes and sneezing start to get better.
