White Tongue. No Blood. What Is It?
This morning I noticed my tongue was white and thick with something on it. At first it was hard to get off,with much poking at it I managed to get a lot of it off but some of it still won t come off. I thought it may be thrush but it came off and isn t open/bleeding? And it is not on the sides of my mouth although I think it started there....
