This is definitely not normal but I do notice that you do need to use oral hygiene procedures to clean your tongue. It may have precipitated due to infection or could be another pathology. Start using a mouthwash and tongue cleaner and a Oral medicine and radiologist
Next Steps
Visit an OMR doctor
Health Tips
