Brief Answer:
probiotics.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

I suggest you to take a probiotic powder mixed with a glass of water for 3 to 5 days, which will regularize the bowel movements. You can take Econorm probitic.

Have lot of fluids and water in your diet.
Include foods rich in fibers like fenugreek, cucumber, and other tubers and vegetables.

The burning of the tongue suggests of acidity in the gut. Which could be treated by Tab. Rabeprazole 20mg 2 times a day for 5 days.

Any issue do get back.

take care.
