Hi, it could be due to allergy, to drugs, food, cosmetics, etc. It also may be due to some tongue bite etc.
If allergen is found by trial and error, it can be avoided for ever, and can stop it. If pain is there it may be due to bite, or injury of the tongue.
Accordingly he can consult a doctor concerned. Thank you.
