My mum has been complaining of a sore tounge!?

Question: my mum keeps complaining of a sore tounge! she says she keeps getting a burning feeling and recently she has noticed that when she has a drink of anything she get a nasty taste left in her mouth. she is refusing to go to a G.P so can anyone help with some answer wot it could be???

Answers:
1. DOES SHE BRUSH HER TONGUE 2 X DAILY? IF HER TONGUE IS CRACKED IN THE MIDDLE & WHITE SHE MAY NEED TO SCUB HER TONGUE.
2. IF HER TONGUE HURTS WHEN SHE EATS CRUNCHY THINGS, SHE MAY HAVE A CONDITION KNOWN AS "THRUSH" THAT IS AN INFECTION OF THE LINING OF THE MOUTH. IT IS PATCHES OF WHITE IN THE CHEEKS AND TONGUE. NEEDS ANTIBIOTIC.
3. IF HER TONGUE IS RED AND IRRITATED IT MAY BE A REACTION TO A MEDICATION SHE IS TAKING. ANYTHING NEW, BEFORE THE PAIN STARTED?
