Hello @Triton,
Its called oral cryotherapy, that is cooling the inside of the mouth by sucking on ice or icy poles. It can be helpful to prevent sore mouth (mucositis) following certain types of chemotherapy. Good idea to check with the chemotherapy team at Alfred Health to see if its an option with Taxol. See the link below to information regarding mouth problems during cancer treatment and how best to manage them.
