Brief Answer:
Please, help us provide and image for this!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

It would be very unlikely that this rash represents an STD. There is no STD that starts with a rash on the tongue. To identify what the exact significance of this rash is, it would be good to obtain an image and send to us for inspection and interpretation.

I look forward getting the image from you. This is to help identify the cause but chances of this being an STD are very very slim if not inexistent.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services.
