Could you have recently burnt your tongue!? If you have, its just from that!. If not it could be an STD, but you really didn't get into specifics of what it looks like!.

Try sucking on a spoonful of sugar!. Sugar helps heal, and it really helps a burnt tongue feel better!. If it isn't better in a few days, go see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

personal experience would tell me you ate too much vinegar, or acidic foods!. things like vinegar and ketchup, anything like that, can burn away at your tongue if you eat too much!. It used to happen to me alot when i was little!. I soon realized why!. To remidy, simply have a non-acidic like milk, it always helps me!. Either this or u cut ur tongue and its trying to healWww@Answer-Health@Com
