What Could Burns In Tongue With Loss Of Taste Suggest?

The tip of my tongue feels like I have burned it with hot beverage but have not. I have limited taste with regards to food and the inside of my mouth feels rough. When i wake up in the morning there a white/yellowing coating not sure what this is but it is very frustruating. I have had it for over 1 month. My doctor put me on prednosone because I have lupus. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

Dont worry you might have accidently burned your tongue with some food beverage.
Apply the prednisone cream over it.
At home take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Avoid hot and spicy, acidic beverages.
Take multivitamin suplements.

Take care!
