Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of oral thrush with tongue soreness which seems to be due to fungal infection due to poor immunity which remains persistent and leading to formation of thick white layer in oral cavity and its surfaces.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain complete oral hygiene and visit oral pathologist once if symptoms keeps on persisting and start treatment after prescription. Go for biopsy of lesions if symptoms keeps on persisting. Avoid sharp, hot and spicy foods. Take Amphotericin B and maintain complete oral hygiene. Avoid stress and take Probiotics like Yoghurt in diet.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
