In this case it is best to at least call and explain it to a nurse. Most times they would prefer it so that you don't come in for nothing. I would call a clinic and see what they have to say.

The "Diper Rash" is caused from her being in a soild diper too long and the spots on her toung are called "Thrush" its caused from people with dirty mouths kissing her on the mouth or by putting unclean bottles or passafiers in her mouth....you will need to take her to the doctor to clear up the thrush...her bottom will need to stay out of a diper and keep cornstarch or desitin on it to help heal it somewhat...keep an eye on her diper and you won't have that problem..I am quite blunt...but the way I see it is its not about you and your feelings its about your child's health...

Change her diet. Take away as many acidic/salty foods as you can. She might have too much acid in her body......
If I were you I would get this checked out though. I really hate to think this way but do you think she was touched inappropriately by anyone? I'd hate to think it was a sexually transmitted disease such as herpes. This doesnt really seem like "just nothing" to me. It might lead to other health complications because the tounge has a vein in it that leads right to the heart.

Sounds like thrush, a common yeast infection. You will have to call the doctor and describe the symptoms, and they will want to see her to prescribe the treatments. Sorry to hear of this, it's terrifying and unnerving to have a baby who needs a lot of medical care.

It could be a reaction to something she's swallowed or put in her mouth. Watch cleaning soaps, like all purpose cleaners. They can do this. Some fruits have a high acid content, like pineapple, kiwi, or mango. Those can also cause a reaction.

you may want to take her to the medical doctors. they are going to opt to work out it, formerly every person can tell what's inaccurate. She might want to be allergic, or actually have some type of an infection. do not wait, you desire some peace and quiet.

You need to call her pediatrician about that. Please dont let too many prior frequent trips to the doctor deter you from taking her for other new issues. I have no idea what it is. Just please take her to the doctor incase its something serious.
