Hello, my tongue was a little bit white and it doesnt look the same as before. i washed and its better but the look it is still kinda weird?

White tongue: Keep brushing your tongue and if it keeps getting white, see the Dr. At some times, with certain medications such as steroidal inhalers (and/or for other reasons), a person can contract a fungal infection of the tongue that may look white. Best wishes to you.
