What is causing this be? White coating gone in the centre of tongue.
Aaron0794 Oct 01
So from last year I have this ongoing allergies. Which turn out to be dry cough and asthma. I was on counter medication with inhalers.
I completely got over the wheezing and dry cough with medicines. But I still have the throat irritation sometimes.

And about four months back, centre of my tongue colour I noticed slight pain and there is a colour change. The white coating in the centre part looks like disappeared to a flat pink region. Doc diagnosed it with vitamin deficiency. And I took tablets for three weeks.
Pain is gone. But the coating is not fully over it. I still have that region in light pinkish colour. Been there for four months.
And body also itches sometimes. No visible rashes. But I feel it to be very itchy sometimes. What could this be?

If you are asymptomatic and present no constitutional symptom, it’s not life threatening. However, your descriptions might suggest candida infection ,nutritional deficiency,blood dyscrasia.

Seeing an oral surgeon or oral pathologist is advised.sometimes a biopsy may be needed in order to establish a definite diagnosis.
