One link went to a page on hashimotos, the other to Hypothyroid Mom, Neither showed anything re tongue diagnosis.

Photos are yucky, but examples of unhealthy tongues. I'm interested as it's used in TCM diagnosis. I remember my childhood doctor checking, my tongue, something that's no longer done.

yes the doctors of "old" locked in my eyes, fingers/nails, ears, tongue and throat. a doctor nowerdays only looks at us and listening to us and the "nurse" will do the rest!.

I can't see it but am very interested to see about lines in the tongue as well as swollen with teeth marks. Have heard it is from malabsorption but can't seem to rectify it.

yes, that was what i thought too, not enough explanation. but still interresting how our body can tell when something is not right. eg tongue, nails, eyes, body shape and odour. x
