Hello read through your query.Accordingly I must say that there is nothing to be worried.It can be just an inflammation of your posterior tongue taste buds(due to antibiotics).It will be fine in few days time.Just do
1)brush twice daily
2)use chlorhexidine mouthwash
3)do tongue scraping(a huge load of microbes will be removed)
4)apply nystatin gel (antifungal)
5)drink lots and lots of water
6)have lots of green leafy vegetables and also fruits(to reduce any vitamin deficiency if so ever and enhance proper healing of inflammed taste buds)
Follow these properly for a week and see the difference.Besides all these reduce stress and tension.Stay cool and calm and HAPPY.Happiness and stressfree mind can heal any disease.Hope you are benefitted something from this reply.Have a healthy day!!!!
