WHAT IS ORAL MUCOSITIS (OM)?
According to the Oral Cancer Foundation, oral mucositis is probably the most common, debilitating complication of cancer treatments, particularly chemotherapy & radiation. Mucositis (mouth sores) is a severe adverse complication of chemotherapy & radiation treatments. OM is an inflammatory reaction of the mucous lining of the upper gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the bowels, which is characterized by painful ulcerations of the mouth, lips, throat & digestive tract lining. Mucositis has a very significant effect on the patient's quality of life & leads to several problems: open sore pain, inability to eat/nutritional concerns & increased risk of infection. This painful side effect can result in treatment interruption, dose reductions or even treatment discontinuation.
Signs of Mucositis (OM):
-Red, shiny sores or swelling in the mouth: gums, tongue or throat
-Soreness, dryness, mild burning, blood or pain in the mouth or throat cavity
-Pain & difficulty swallowing, talking or eating
-Soft, whitish patches, pus in the mouth or increased mucus/saliva
​​
Chemotherapy Oral Mucositis: Oral mucositis is estimated to occur in 20% - 40% of patients receiving conventional chemotherapy & up to 80% of patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy. When caused by chemotherapy, mucositis is usually due to the low white blood cell count.
​
Approximate Timing Following Chemo: Onset of signs - Shortly after administration | Peak - 7 to 14 days | Resolution - 14 to 21 Days​
​Radiation Oral Mucositis:
Patients receiving radiation to the head, neck, or chest areas & patients who undergo bone marrow or stem cell transplant, are even more likely to develop OM. Nearly all patients receiving fractionated radiation for head & neck cancers experience OM. When caused by radiation, OM is usually due to the necrotic & inflammatory effect of radiation energy on oral mucosa.
Approximate Timing Following Radiation:
Onset of signs - 2 to 3 wks after treatment | Peak - Continuous throughout treatment | Resolution - 2 to 4 weeks after last done

Review Testimonials from Verified Cancer Related ~ Oral Mucositis Users:
"I started a new cancer medication and a side effect is mouth sores. My sores were constant. I could only eat small bites of soft, non-salty food. When I started Soothie Frost, I had 10 canker sores and 2 cold sores that ranged from pea to bean size. After consuming a Soothie Frost I felt immediate relief, it lasted longer, relief was 3-4 hours. The “miracle mouthwash” from the doctor only lasted thirty minutes. I noticed a reduction of the sores the next day! No sores would form from the treatment, however after 8 weeks, I have had no sores for 2 weeks so far." - K. B.
"As a cancer patient receiving chemotherapy I truly cannot say enough about this wonderful product. My mouth sores were unbearable but the SOOTHIES help me through it. It's an outstanding product and I highly recommend SOOTHIES to anyone with any kind of mouth sores. Outstanding product. A+ all the way!” - L. T. C.
"I’m doing chemo treatments and this causes sores in your mouth. These need to be available in cancer centers for the patients. Soothie Frost gave me tons of immediate relief and after about 4 days my dime size sores went down in size and around day 6 they were gone. I still suck on one a day until I’m off chemo just to be safe." - T. W.

"I can’t tell you how many times in those first years that Soothie Frost helped my wife deal with side effects from chemo pills. She relished the product and she was still promoting Soothie Frost to everyone she thought needed it.Thank you for taking care of my sweetie when she needed it most." - M. B.

"My uncle is under going chemotherapy treatments due to esophagus cancer, plus he also suffers from Barrett’s esophagus. As a result, he has no lining of his esophagus. We encourage him to take Soothie Frost daily for health benefits as he needs these nutrients and vitamins, since his throat is very sensitive to pain. A side effect of his chemotherapy treatment is extreme sensitivity to cold, so we administer the pops to him after they are thawed and at room temperature. He felt immediate relief after his first pop! He will continue to consume daily throughout his treatments." - C. D., APRN, BSN, CLHRP
"My wife suffered through pancreatic cancer and had severe mouth sores from the treatments. She lost her appetite and nothing tasted good to her. It was difficult to find creative ways to get her to eat. She was so frail with no energy. The only thing she would look forward to eating was Soothie Frost, which she fondly called them ‘Slimmies’. This is a tragic disease and there is a huge need for this product." - L. Y.

"Took my last chemo at the end of the year. So happy it’s over. They said this would be the hardest one to deal with & I guess they were right. The Soothie pops have been lifesavers for me. Something I have discovered, if I eat one right before I go to bed, coats my mouth & it feels so much better the next morning. They also helped when I got thrush after treatment" - R. L.

“The pops for my mother who has been battling cancer off and on for the past 20+ years now. What she is using has stopped working on the spots on her lungs and now she will be using what they originally prescribed when she had her mastectomy. She remembers having mouth sores back then, so we are preparing for them ahead of time! Thank you for the help.” - J. R.
​
“I got my second Covid-19 vaccine shot yesterday. I felt the side of my tongue was feeling a slight soreness, so I ate one pop that evening. I have had no side effects at all from the shot, and my tongue and throat were fine since I had a pop. I just placed an order to send some to my sister undergoing cancer treatments. Her platelets are so low she even got a blood blister in her mouth this past week. This product really works!” - J. P.
Soothie frost Inspiration & Origin Story:
"Several years ago my 3 year old granddaughter was diagnosed with stage IV neuroblastoma. One of the side effects of her chemo treatment caused mouth sores so severe that she could not talk let alone drink or eat. It was very scary & upsetting. One of my good friends, was so moved by my granddaughter’s suffering she decided to find something to help mouth sores ~ Through her tenacious research, testing, talking to experts, etc... my friend invented Soothie Frost patented formula! I personally have used Soothie Frost on my mouth sore & it stopped the pain & healed it in one use. The world needs more compassionate, caring people like the creator of this product & I will be forever thankful to her. BTW - My granddaughter is now a thriving, vibrant & very active happy little girl enjoying elementary school. She is doing great!’" - J. O.
"Those nasty mouth sores are the worst! I remember when my three year old daughter couldn't talk for a couple of days because they were so bad from the chemo treatments. It was awful. I'm so happy that this product is taking such initiative to help ease cancer fighters' pain because there is a tremendous amount of it during chemo. Anything to lessen their pain is a gift." - B. O.
