Mouth Wounding Advice

I recently picked up the pipe and over the last several months have enjoyed lurking on this board, picking up jewels of wisdom as they've been seen. Though there have been several related posts, I have not found some specific list of do's and dont's yet for mouth wounds and burns and am hoping for some counsel. My situation is that I live in Asia and eat, almost by necessity, a lot of spicy food which frequently cause irritation. In addition, when I smoke the pipe (Cob and Grabow) I get some tongue bite and roof of mouth sometimes will sting more..
What are some practical things I can do to help? It has been made very clear that I need to slow down, lots. I have done better since putting that into practice. I also am using a filter and working on packing. Is there anything else? Also, is there any ointment or something I could do to help heal hurts? What about Green Tea? Does it help? Lastly, how much of an increase will I have with oral problems if I just push through the light irritations and smoke?

I have found that drinking water while smoking helps a lot. Through out the day I can easily drink about 10 cups of green tea; guess I need to cut back on that habit. In China where it is a beverage of choice. Biotene is something that will be checked into.

zekest-Haha. Yea, actually does not give me any of those things nor the mumps or measles... I just seem to have a reoccurring issue on my palate that I battle, and I think this is more likely do to eating very hot food.
