What Causes Burning Sensation And Bumps On Tongue?
Hello DR.
My Concern Is With My Tongue. This Is The Second Day My Tongue Has Felt As If I've Sipped Something Hot And Burne It But I Didn't. I Haven't Had Anything Hot To Drink At All. Tonight As I Examined My Tongue In The Mirror I Became Fearful. It Has All Bumps On It And Is Red In Some Spots And Looks White Further Back In My Mouth. It's Makes Brushing My Tongue Difficult Because It Feels Like Im Scraping It.Im Traveling And Won't Have A Chance To See My Dr Til Mon But Do U Have Any Suggestions Or Recommendations Until Then?

Thanks for using Health Care magic.
Read your query.
The red dots on the tongue can be due to the Vitamin B12 deficiency,oral candidiasis,having spicy intake of food or any trauma,any medications taken which are not mentioned here and many other factors,dry mouth .
I would advice you to visit a local oral surgeon and get it evaluated.
Reduce spicy food and lead a healthy lifestyle.consult your physician and start with multi-vitamins.
Use a antiseptic mouth wash or salt water gargling.
Keep your oral cavity hydrated. DO not brush vigorously on the tongue,use a soft brush to clean.
Hope this was helpful.
Thanks and regards.
