Common Questions and Answers about White tongue yeast infection
tongue
This sounds like thrush, a yeast infection characterized by a white tongue. It can be treated with prescription medications from a doctor. Also, theoretically, taking L. Acidophilus supplements or eating yogurt containing L. Acidophilus can help prevent thrush and chronic yeast infections. Eating lots of sugary things can exacerbate the condition.
I have CFS and I frequently get the "white coated tongue".

Ok questions>>>I was recently (like in october) diagnosed with chlamydia...i have only had 2 sex partners..and my partner did get treated as well as me...now you know they say that antibiotics cause yeast infections...well i was wondering if that and of course being a 'pre-diabetic' which are two "risks" for recurring yeast has anything to do with my concern...
I would recommend that you google candida, it is basically an overgrowth of yeast. A "yeast infection" is typically experienced by women in their vagina, however yeast can also be present and cause problems all over the body (male or female) and this is more typically called candida. It can and does cause fatigue and very pronounced symptoms. Many of the symptoms are the same as many of the CFS/Fibro symptoms. It is definitely worth looking into.
Hello,
First of all, identify the main reason of white spot on tongue. Generally, yeast infection is one of the common reason of white spot on tongue. Due to this infection you may feel burning in your tongue. To prevent this, use spices with antifungal properties such as garlic, sage, cinnamon, etc. Also try to avoid yeasty food like alcohol and sugar.
Note: To get fast and better recovery, you can meet your doctor.
It goes away wtih brushing, but comes back within a few minutes. Is this normal? Could it be a yeast infection? Is the white coating a result of the bad tooth? Why would a section of my tongue turn red? Is it possible that there is some sort of corrosive leakage from the bad tooth?
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone have a white tongue due to Crohn's? If yes, what did the doctors say it was from and can it be treated? I have a feeling its because my digestive system isn't working well as I am not absorbing much.
As I started to get better, my tongue got better-but never all the way. Ever since then, my tongue is always covered in white in the mornings before I brush my teeth. It is also sensitive to: ketchup, marinara, salsa, ANYthing spicy except black pepper, mustard, pizza, some marinades, ranch dressing, chips (even plain), really salty foods--- just basically ANYthing that is not completely bland. I have to gulp water constantly while eating to soothe my tongue.
It's possible to get oral thrush, a yeast infection of the mouth. The odds of you getting thrush from a single contact with a woman who had a yeast infection are dependent mostly on the duration of contact and the state of your immune system. If you're healthy and didn't linger too long, the odds of getting an infection are pretty low. If you start getting muckmouth and white patches and a thick film of white on your tongue, it's possible you picked up thrush.
t white or swollen and is localized to just the tip of my tongue. I am thinking it could be thrush, because I had a vaginal yeast infection and performed oral sex on my partner after vaginal-penile sex. However, I thought thrush was white and would affect my entire tongue. With it occuring is conjunction with a vaginal outbreak, and an outbreak on my tongue I am inclined to believe it is from herpes. Any thoughts??? I have been applying gentian violet which seems to be helping.
And now I looked in the mirror and saw some white in the back of my tongue. Its a small thin layer of white in the back of my tongue with fissures going down the center. The fissures aren't very deep. I am worried about this. I don't want it to be anything serious. I am scared to try brushing it off. The picture isn't my tongue but it is very similar to it. Except the white isn't in the front. It's in the back on the top of my tongue. Its minor though.Please help!!
I have a white / yellowish growth on my tongue that when cleaned using a tongue scraper comes off in a pasty substance.
I previously had a yeast infection caused by antibiotics. It lasted several years and affected my tongue and gut health causing growth on my tongue and diarrhea if I ate any breads or sugar. After going through a long course of anti fungal treatment my gut health appears to have fully rebounded but my tongue still has this growth occurring.
hi...why still nobody answering here?
To describe the tongue, the papillae are all pretty much white. If I brush my tongue with baking soda it pinkens it up temporarily but it always goes back to white. Even when it is temporarily pink I can see the outline of where it will turn white again as it looks like there is a slimy coating that cant be scraped off in that area. It covers the top surface of my tongue from the back where it is very white to the tip where there is more pink areas mixed in with the white.
For last one year or more, I have been experiencing this white dry tongue.
Whiteness is at the back of the tongue like in White coating in this picture

However the coating is more prominent towards the back of the tongue. It is not very thick, but it smears evening over back of my tongue. I scrape it every morning and it is back, without fail, by evening, everyday for last 1 year. That is what is worrying me.
