Having Noticed Severe Cracks On Tongue

Hello Dr.Prasad- I ame 33 yr old Female 80kgs, have severe cracks on tongue for quite some time. Whenever I have Becelac capsules, it diminishes but doesn't go away. I cannot have anything spicy now as it burns the open cracks. My father also has same symptoms.

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
The cracks on tongue which you are mentioning can be because of fissured tongue, as it is common condition occur in 30% of people. But burning is not so common.
To get relief you have to start with some antioxidants and an anesthetic mouthwash.
Till you start with medications you can also apply mucopain gel on the tongue 3 times a day.
Hope it will help you.
