Has anyone heard of geographic tongue?


Question:
My tongue looks awful, will it get better?

Answers:
New to me. See a doctor.
If your tongue is sore or has a burning sensation, avoid spicy or hot foods, alcohol, and tobacco. Toothpastes that contain tartar-control additives or flavoring may also aggravate it. It would be best to use toothpaste that is made for sensitive teeth. Your doctor may refer you to a dermatologist or dentist if this persists. You can read more about this condition here
