Why is my tongue all white?



Recommended Posts

Please sleevers help me out on this one. My tongue is coated and white and no matter how much I brush and scrape my tongue it won't go away!

Anyone else have this?

Do a Google search on Thrush. Compare the images to yours. Happened to me after my last operation.

Sounds like Thrash it's a yeast infection babies normally get. You need antibiotics. It's not a big deal!!

Yup - I got the thrush also. You can get some medicine, but mine went away after a week without meds in addition to some tongue tooth brushing.

Thanks everyone! Definitely what it is, I was readmitted the day after I was discharged last week due to an abdominal hematoma. The amount of antibiotics the put in me was crazy!

Antibiotics apparently can cause thrush and since I don't have lesions it will likely go away on its own.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! Gotta love this forum!
