What Could White Bumps On Tongue Be?

My tongue is on fire and is very sensitive whether Iam eating or drinking. Ice seemed to help the pain. I see small white bumps as small as poppy seeds. Inside the lower inner lip felt like light sand paper. Could this be a food allergy? or could it be something else?

Hello! Read your query.

You seem to be suffering from a vitamin deficiency.
Take becosules,riboflavin and folic acid supplements. Skip spicy foods. Be on a healthy diet like fresh veggies and fruits.
The bumps are swollen papilla of the tongue which also suggest deficiencies.
Do not smoke tobacco or drink.

Regards.
