hi
it may be geographical tongue.
its asymptomatic condition
hot and spicy food may increase it
it is normal condition and will recover its own
u need to take folic acid tab only
This may be just the normal pigmentation on the tongue.
Nothing to worry about, just keep a check on it,
Pigmentation may change its place again and again, this is called geographic tongue which is normal..
if pain, swelling, hairs and bad taste appear then consult physician.
