i am worried with my tongue.need some help please

i am worried with the appearance of my tongue. i thought it was just normal but when i looked at the mirror tonight, it seems like there is something wrong with it.

it has some whitish thing on top with small dots and on the left side of it, i saw a little black thing(i ain't sure if you call that a papillae) which hurts.and another is at the end of my tongue, the papillae seems to be big.

i am very bothered.please do help me. :-(

See a doctor or dentist as soon as possible, it sounds to me like a type of yeast infection, which is thrush.
