I have been told that I have "Burnt Tongue Syndrome", but from what I have read I am not sure.?

I have what I describe as red racing stripes down both sides of my tongue, a whitish "coating" on it, it feels like I burned it, but didn't, and excessive thick salvia. Does anyone know what this might be and what can I do to make it go away?

Thanks for the response but it is not thrush, have been treated for that several times, doc sent me to oral surgon who said it is burnt tongue syndrome but said there was nothing short of getting in a study at Hopkins to do about it, I was hoping that someone might know something not so drastic

Whitish coating and thick saliva sounds more like a yeast infection/candida. Sometimes if you are on antibiotics or have been or immune comprimised for some reason you can get a candida infection in the mouth. The whitish coating will usually rub off a little, tongue very sore, and often bright red beneath the white coating. See your dentist he can prescribe/test for.
