Tongue different colour at the tip - slight burning pain what is this?
Hi all,
Just wanted to get some thoughts on this issue I've been having for the last few months.
I've been have a dull burning pain that comes and goes on the tip of my tongue, I can see the taste buds/papillae on the tip and some seem larger with pink around the outside and kind of a red dot in the middle. I was wondering if it was TLP but it hasn't really went away. It doesn't hurt when I touch/rub it. Maybe just me constantly checking and sticking out my tongue is causing the irritation.
I hasnt really gotten worse, just mildly annoying - I was wondering if anyone has an idea what this could be?
Thanks in advance!
