How To Cure Swollen Foliate Papillae?

I have swollen foliate papillae. I'm a bit concerned... I have been going to my doctor for him ignore my symptoms. My tongue has been burning, some itching as well on tongue and throat at times. I was treated for yeast due to slimy coating on side of tongue. Now, the side of my tongue is red, burning a bit, have a weird taste and is swollen. At times, I get a swollen side of the tongue, feels bruised and I get a sore throat and ear on that same side that is affected (mostly the right side). I was thinking food intolerance or something. Not sure!
