Why is it so that when i brush my teeth and stretch the tongue outside my mouth, after a while my tongue starts aching? I discovered this a couple of days ago and I am wondering whether it's me and if not, which specific ingredient of the toothpaste causes such reaction. I am using a regular colgate toothpaste, btw.

Reply	petethebloke says: I don't want to dismiss your concerns, but try holding your hand as high as you can above your head, and you'll soon notice your arm starts to ache. Turn your head as far round as you can to look behind you, maintain that posture and your neck starts to ache. I'm afraid that the makers of Colgate toothpaste cannot be held responsible.
