I notice that under my tongue, it looks like I have a rash, when I stick out my tongue it feels ruff, like sand paper. Under the tongue is lots of small bumps but it doesn t show to much, and some of the veins under the tongue it has deep red blood spots. My mouth feel dry and irritated, and I could feel it also in the inter part of the month. What could of cause it? What should I do?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The small bums like deep red spots under the tongue or floor of the mouth can be because of the inflamed salivary gland duct opening secondary to any stones near the duct opening causing erosion or the ulceration of the mucosa. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get a occlusal radiograph and sialography to rule out the stone and other pathologies in the salivary gland. Once it is diagnosed we can treat accordingly by surgically removing the stone.
Mean while you can take symptomatic treatment like topical anesthetic and analgesics like 2%lignocaine and choline salicylate gel (anabel gel) apply 3-4 times daily before food and if the paim is severe you can take systemic analgesics like diclofenac 50mg BID for 3 days. do saline gargling.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
