What are the signs of thrush in adult?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

White film on tounge: There is usually a white film on the tongue and the inside of the cheeks and on the gums. Often the corners of the mouth are cracked. When the film is scraped off, the underlying surface is red and can bleed. Denture wearers are suceptible to fungal infections. Most often, thrush in adults is associated with systemic diseases such as diabetes, immune deficiency disorders and chemo therapy.
