Tongue Feels Funny Like Tingling With Tiny Brown Dot And Dryness

Hello. I woke up this morning with my tongue feeling funny. It didn t hurt, just tingled, still does. I looked in the mirror and saw I had a tiny brown dot with a red patch around it on my tounge. My mouth was a little dry and after I swished water around it, the dot sort of faded. I became flatter, but I still feel the tingle.
