What Does Roughness In The Mouth And Tongue Indicate?

I have a roughness inside my mouth in all the areas like over the tongue, inner part of chin and lips. I also have a low taste feeling for the foods I eat. So, please mention some remedy for that and also mention the disease I may have. What can I do ?

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Roughness inside the mouth can be due to causes like dryness in mouth or Xerostomia, fungal infection or Thrush, Hyperkeratosis or excessive keratin deposition, Infection, allergy etc..

So my suggestion is to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a clinical examination can be done..
If there is any lesions then a biopsy can be done..

For now do warm saline gargles.
Chew sugar free chewing gum and drink plenty of water..
Void spicy foods..
Do not use any harmful things like tobacco, cigarette etc..

Hope this helps.

Regards..
