Hi,
From, history it seems that you might be having Glossitis or having some allergy to some food giving rise to this feeling.
Try to find out the food likely might produce allergy.
Take B.complex, folic acid tablet for few days.
keep oral hygiene healthy.
Avoid taking fried, chillies and junk food.
Ok and take care.

HI
Thank fro choosing HCM
Always think in better ways, this is not the symptom of what you are thinking, this could be fungal infection of mouth, antifungal mouth preparation would relieve this, along with this just have opinion from Dentist, have green leafy vegetable, milk, fresh fruits, take care Have nice day.
