What Is The Treatment For Peeling Of The Tongue?
a three year old male child has repetitive peeling of the tongue in a large patchy like consistency which makes the tongue appear as if burned skin is peeling off however the tongue has not been burned.The child has a healthy diet and drops for thrush have not worked. Liquid iron supplement is appearing to move the problem however as soon as the drops are stopped the peeling tongue occurs again.
