tongue discomfort
For quite some time now the tip of my tongue is painful. I have not bitten it, nor have I eaten or drank anything too hot. It feels like paper cuts and I have never seen any sores.
Best Answer
You may have developed an allergy to something that you've eaten. This happened to me. I developed a citrus allergy. Whenever I drank lemonade, orange or pineapple juice, my tongue would be in pain, but the affect from the acid is much worse now. I can't eat or drink anything with citric acids, it blisters my tongue and burns the skin from inside of my mouth. I hope this helps.

Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Painful tip of the tongue that feels like paper thin cuts can be due to Vit B and iron deficiency. So take a multivitamin pill with iron and see. If this does not help then you will need to get tested for referred dental pain, cancer of tip of tongue, nerve damage or herpes.
Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral.
Hope this helps. Take care!
