Irritated Tongue With White Tender Spots, Pain While Swallowing. Due For Replacing Filling In Back Tooth. Infection?

My tongue feels irritated, and I just now spotted a white spot on it. I thought it might be due to a small chip off
my back tooth, that I have an appt. to have the filling to be replaced next week. But this is very tender, and
it hurts to swallow. My dentist has given me Triamcin, but it provides short relief. I'm wondering if the white spot
is an indication of something else.
