My Girlfriend dosent have anything either shes been tested and she has came back clean so i didnt get anything from her. But the patches on my tounge are kind of sore when i swallow but im worried and scared do i have anything??
Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. Sore patches in the tongue could be due to enlarged circumvallate papillae usually occurs due to few factors including hot and spicy food, Castro esophageal reflux and some infection, excessive smoking and canker sores. It can sometimes occur due to nutritional deficiency, anemia or stress. You should not worry as it is a not a condition which is dangerous. Maintain a good oral hygiene, reduce hot and spicy food. If you smoke excessively reduce smoking. Use saline water gargling. If still worried consult an oral surgeon and have it checked. Hope this was helpful. Thanks and regards.
