There are many causes of tongue pain. If there is no trauma, no ulcer and the patient is a perimenopausal or menopausal woman, the possibility of burning mouth syndrome is considered to be high.
If the tongue appears congested with mucous membrane, scattered white spots with irritation and burning pain, consider oral candidiasis, recurrent mouth ulcers, flat moss of the tongue, etc. This condition needs to be seen in the hospital dentistry department.
