You really need to go to the Doctors and should not put it off as I feel you need medical treatment. I can not say what that is on your tongue because I can not see it nor should anyone else try to diagnose your present condition. First of all you need have a check-up as you may have a URI (upper respiratory infection) and, your tongue could be a couple of things that are easily taken care of . Sooooooooooo don't hesitate any longer as you will not feel better by waiting. Play it smart, be seen by the Doctor, and seek treatment. You'll be happy you did!

Ginger root and garlic are high in anti fungal characteristics. Even cures herpes, planters warts, clap, etc. Proven results. And oh yeh! sorry but you don't get any side effects like with the more expensive drugs that just go for the symptoms and not the disease. You'll have to take medication if you want side effects. I grate up raw ginger root and make a tea out of it. Use raw garlic not the bottled stuff that has it's potency removed. grated garlic is best. It's very hot so don't try eating it alone. I do sometimes but I prefer not to. As for side effects your're on your own; you'll have to get them somewhere else.

gargle with hot salt water..as hot as you can stand it after 24 hours of doing this ever 3 hours...then you should have gotten rid of most of the white stuff..you probably got tonsillitis..and you will need to get some antibiotic shot from the doctor as you may get a fever from this infection...aspirin for the pain

usually when someone gets "white stuff" on their tongue along with pain it is thrush, which is a fungal infection. go to the doctor and if he rules that yes it is thrush then he will prescribed a nystation solution for you to use.

Its possible that you have a "strep" infection.If your running a fever,and have chest congestion,or any other cold & flu symptoms,you should see your MD,for some antibiotics.Take care. SW RNP
