Patches on the tongue are generally caused by a condition called geographic tongue due to the map-like appearance of the tongue. This condition occurs because of the presence of uneven patches that develop on the tongue. The upper part of the tongue is made up of papillae which are small projections on the surface. When a person is inflicted with geographic tongue, smooth red patches form on the surface of the tongue. These patches are surrounded by a grayish white border. The red patches have a dearth of papillae, while the borders are overloaded with them. These patches do not have definite shapes, may last for a few hours or days, and may appear and disappear indefinitely. They are often accompanied by pain. A burning or tingling sensation, numbness and fissures are also characteristic of the condition. People who are sensitive to various allergens or who suffer from eczema or asthma are prone to the condition and therefore they need to be extra cautious. Stress, vitamin deficiencies and hormonal changes can also cause geographic tongue.
Geographic tongue......stress,malnutrition and hormonal changes....
