[|Human|] My tongue hurts really bad. I used an inhaler the other day that i have never used before. The next day i woke up and my tongue was in a lot of pain (almost as if i burnt it). I looked in the mirror and my tongue had an extreme amount of white stuff on it (looked simillar to plaque but i was unable to brush it all off) Now days after, the white stuff is gone but my tongu and gums are very sensitive. It almost feels like my whole tongue is raw. I need help please!!!!
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your query white coating over the tongue after using inhaler that might be containing Steroid can be due to Yeast infection over the tongue known as Oral Thrush. It can cause inflammation of tongue and gums leading to pain and soreness. As the white coating is gone that means infection is resolving there can still be inflammation of tongue and gums leading to pain and soreness. Nothing to worry, start gargling with Statin mouthwash to resolve the residual infection. Gargle with numbing mouthwash containing Lidocaine. Take vitamin B complex supplements daily. Suck ice pops and do cold water rinses.in case of no improvement consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
