Tongue lesions side
Common Questions and Answers about Tongue lesions side
tongue
Is the tongue just white all over or in patches? Patches I believe typically indicate some sort of yeast infection (I believe it's called thrush - appears as whitish, velvety lesions in the mouth and on the tongue. Underneath the whitish material, there is red tissue that may bleed easily. The lesions can slowly increase in number and size.) that will require further treatment. If you had Thrush, your doctor probably would have caught it I imagine.
It grew and spread to the other side of the tongue. It is always painless, unless picked at. The lesions present as flattened white wrinkly patches, that can be rubber off with a paper towel exposing a red base underneath, that sometimes bleeds.
I am quite certain it is not thrush, as my mother is a pediatric nurse practitioner and assures me it couldn't be this. I have not been on any antibiotics for years and don't have a problem with being sick in general.
can you get an STD from licking the side of the penis? No contact with the head of the penis and no fluid contact occured.
My main concern and question is would geograohic tongue only appear on this one spot on the tongue? The lesions do change in size and shape and they are red in the center with the whitish yellow border. They do seem to grow every day, then disappear only to reappear the very next day on the same spot and location on his tongue. I am a little anxious that this could be something more worrisome like cancer. Is this normal behavior for gt to only pop up in one area of the tongue?
I went to my dentist the other day to have him check these red spots on each side on my tongue there only on the side part of the tongue that hit the side of the mouth.Its more red then the tongue itself and it has white only under the bottom of these red spots.one side its about an inch long the other side its about 2 inches long.there on my part of my tongue that sits back where there is no teeth maybe a about a half inch from where the molors end.
Yea...I mean, it's only my tongue that's the problem...some days my tongue looks dry...and the lesions seem to be going down..and then few days down the road they come back.
The only reason I think the herpes is related to the lesions in my mouth is because I didn't have this problem before
I need to go and have another test.
Thanks everyone.
---My dry mouth came down a little
---And PAINFUL LYMPH NODES WERE NOT PRESENT ANYMORE
---After 2 weeks I noticed again 2 lesions (Smaller but 2 of them) this time ON THE SIDE OF MY TONGUE
the same process after a few days they went away again no pain but this led me to believe it was more conclusive like HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA because i have had total of 2 more lesions again on side of the tongue (total of 4 on side and only 1 on top of the tongue overall) although when I searched for Hairy leuk
After a couple of days two red spots appeared on the edge of my tongue on the border one on each side. It was dark red, a month later on the left side of my tongue a white flaky line appeared that seems to be flaky, and i can scrape it off. After brushing my teeth, and tongue it goes away. It shows up again the next morning. Is this some type of HIV?
ve been tested back in January and June for oral herpes, and both times came back negative. I keep getting what seems to be a canker sore on the side of my tongue, and it appears in the same spot. It's happened 3 times in the past 4 months. I'm afraid it's herpes, what do you think? Is it typical to see recurrent herpes IN the mouth/throat as opposed to the lips/face? Please help!
When I went for re evaluation on Wednesday Doctor noticed small lesions on my tongue. She sent me right to oral surgeon and told me to come back and see her on Monday march 28. Surgeon took X-ray and it looked fine. He told me he thought I had shingles and prescribed me prednisone for five days. In the next five days the pain in my face subsided and the sores on my tongue got worse.
12 days ago I French kissed a girl in a bar. I did not notice any lesions or issues with her lips. About a year ago I tested clean for HSV 1 and 2. The next day after the kiss my lips started burning, and that has continued the entire 12 days. No real pain or discomfort, they (along with my mouth / tongue) seem dry but that is a side effect of cholesterol medicine I started about 2 months ago.
1)At the back of my tongue, on one side, there are 3-4 small growths (about where the tongue attaches to the back of the mouth), which I have to believe the dentist saw and must have dismissed as normal anatomy.
2) Also in the same general area, but more up where my tonsil use to be, still the same side, there also appears to be a growth, little more red.
Any thougths? Thank you.
[The top side of the tongue is covered in small protrusions called papillae. In a tongue affected by geographic tongue, there are red patches on the surface of the tongue bordered by grayish white. The papillae are missing from the reddish areas and overcrowded in the grayish white borders. Whitish/yellow discolouration of the tongue is frequently due to a yeast infection. The small patches may disappear and reappear in a short period of time (hours or days), and change in shape or size.
So on macrh 25 i pulled my self together and decided to get tested again,i took a rapid blood test,and THANK GOD it came out negative for hiv, since i mess around with oh girl its been 147 days,but my tongue is still on top and on the side i get these lil patches on the side of my tongue but i kan scrape them off ,rash by my tonsils,lil red lesions under my tongue, and one on the side of my tongue,and my throat get alil sore when i brethe in cold air and yea i for got to mentioned i had red b
I usually get cold sores when I am under stress, but about a week and a half ago, I developed a cold sore on my lip that healed,but then white bumps only on the side of my tongue formed. They cause no pain at all. The doctor said it was still the herpes simplex virus 1, but I am scared because they have not healed yet or shown signs of improvement.
two on the tip and one a little to the side. I was reading online that ulcerative colitis can cause sores to appear in your mouth and didn't know if this was a cause for the sores to appear. Now, I have one on the tip of my tongue that just appeared yesterday and today it has a white center. I'm kinda freaking out if it would just a regular ulcer caused by the colitis or if it is something worse like herpes.
Went to Dentist today that ordered a biopsy on white lesions ( which to me looks like a white film and patches on tongue) on cheeks and sides of tongue. The white film on tongue and cheeks does not slough off which the dentist said is better then having it scrape off and have redness underneath.
About 2 months ago I performed oral sex on a male and I am also male. I believe I swallowed but know I did not do anything other then that.
While I brushed my teeth and gently brushed my tongue I noticed lesions on my tongue when I spit, even with clear water, it has a hint of bright red (blood) in it. The lesions on my tongue, by this third day, are almost 1/2 deep as my tongue is thick. I thought perhaps I wasn't drinking enough water, and dehydration was the cause, but this does not not really appear to be the problem. I have a multitude of allergies, but if this is a result is it a new one.
I woke up this morning feeling like there was a 9v battery stuck to the tip of my tongue. It is slowly spreading further back and I cant bump my tongue on my teeth which makes eating n talking pretty much impossible.
I really hope this goes away soon. I am due for my tysabri on tues and if I have to call the dr tomorrow she will postpone my treatment and want to see me first. UGH!!!!
Ok I'm done venting.
I just have to quip that this sounds like Restless Tongue Syndrome.
Are you also sticking your tongue out, licking your lips or smacking your lips? I'm thinking of a severe side effect of some meds here. (Tardive dyskinesia)
the answer is yes, there are lesions that can cause excessive movement of the tongue. I have heard of this is MS.
Your neuro needs to hear about it asap.
Anyone have input on this? My lesions are in brain and cervical spine is a mess with lesions. Arms n hands are awful. Have had the hugs as well. And the almighty "zapper", the elect current that runs through torso and hits you in the pelvic area. This disease is quite difficult to keep up with. Here then there then another area...
