Hi,

The s/s of cold with blister/sore tongue. Is possible with either

- There is associated constipation /antibiotic intake which had destroyed normal intestinal fora, vitamin B complex(sp. folic acid) deficiency. Causing tongue issues.

Taking mild laxative dose/folic acid supplementation along with treatment of cold would be the answer.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
