Hello,

Iit may be due to allergic reaction or viral infection or chemical burn or glossitis. Use tablet levocetirizine once a day for five days. Use salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Use B complex vitamin once a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
