I'm no expert, however, it is possible to get a yeast-like infection in your mouth. It shows up as white stuff on your tongue. If it is, and again, I'm no expert, you'll require a prescription to clear it. I wouldn't wait. A friend of mine was too busy to go to the doctor and ended up paying hundreds of dollars for medicine to clear an infection which dragged on for months, which could have been cleared up in a few days had she gone right away.

Sounds like thrush. Is it also on the insides of your cheeks? All thrush is, is a form of a yeast infection. Don't get grossed out, yeast grows in dark moist places and can be cleared up very easily. But you need to go to the doctor and get a prescription.

As for all of the "brush your tongue" comments, I wouldn't do that until you see your doctor. It could be raw and sore under the white spots and irritating it could be bad.

Check with your doctor. My daughter had it some time ago and she was given medicine to clear it.
