Hi my tongue has been green for over a week, i'm taking antibiotics for pleurisy, i also had a flu virus & have low white blood cells?

Tongue: May be a side effect of the antibiotics or the flu virus. You should gargle with salt water and it should slowly go away. If not then see your doctor to have it cultured
