Could it be thrush ? Yellowy white .

I had this orally fir the first time but I'd had antibiotics

Easy to treat if thats the case.

Yess white on the front n little yellowish at the back

[Akashrajput in reply to Nackapan]

I'm having iron n multivitamins I thought that might b the reason

[Nackapan in reply to Akashrajput]

Perhaps colour of vitamin tablets could stain your tongue . I've not had this from vitamin tablets apart from one that had a red colour to If yoor mouth feels clean and not sore, monitor .

If concerned get if looked at by your doctor (easier said than done i appreciate) or speak to a pharmacist.

I've had this before and Dr told me it was dehydration, so something else to consider.

[Akashrajput in reply to Roses46]

plse see a doc for testing - that's the only way of working out what's wrong. Blood sugar fasting test to start with probably and go from there...

[Akashrajput in reply to jox1]

Okay sir thank you!!

Been tested for diabetes? (not the only cause of this but that could be one thing to check)

[Akashrajput in reply to B12life]

My fasting glucose is 75 and after meal is 102

Is it glossitis? If smooth, thick and discolored it could be. I get that every time I’m low b-12 and is my reliable symptom. I also get more sensitive to spicy and acidic foods.

[Akashrajput in reply to Fiercepapillon]

My tongue isn't thick it's normal for now but has been a very little white not too white

[B12life]

I did and it was swollen but I didn't quite realize that at the time. I would agree with the group, that it could be thrush. If you have taken antibiotics any time in the recent year or less, this could be the culprit. I do also have the glossitis because of B12. I still slur my words because of the swollen tongue.

This b12 deficiency is a pain it comes up with something or the other everytime
