Sleeping and tongue bitting is common. I've been having Grand Mal seizures for over 10 years now. I take 2 medicine to control mine but still have them. Had 2 the other day haven't ate in days cause my tongue is still hurting. But for me my Dr. Has no clue on why & what causes my seizures so i just deal with them the best i can.

It is not uncommon for people to bite their tongues like when you're in seizures. In most cases, a tongue bite is not a major cause for concern, despite the fact that it can be very painful. This is because most tongue bites get completely cured easily, within a week or two, without any medical treatment required. The tongue heals quite quickly, as compared to other parts of the body, probably because it is coated with a layer of saliva. A deep tongue bite is not an uncommon problem, but it could take a while for it to heal. Moreover, it is best to have a doctor check a deep cut on the tongue, because medical intervention may be required in certain cases. And for your home treatment you may try to apply ice cubes, salt water rinse, and avoid spices. Reputation Advocate
