I have a cute on the end of my tongue soon after i smoked meth , it has been no more then 2 days and it is white around the area i guess it is infected? how do i fix this, i have only tried mouth wash

I : I don't know if your tongue is infected or not. Usually an infected tongue is swollen and painful. White film could be thrush. There are small bumps on your tongue called papillae. With an infection the papillae can flatten out and the area becomes sensitive. Is there a chance that you burned your tongue? Recommend gargling warm salt water several times to help kill germs. Good oral hygiene is very important. If you are a meth abuse, you are less likely to attend to oral hygiene needs. If this is the case, it may be in your best interest to be medically evaluated and to determine if there is a need for antibiotics.

Agree : Agree with dr. Fowler and would like to add that this could simply be a burn injury. Meth is extremely damaging to you mouth, especially to the teeth. I recommend that you get an evaluation by a general dentist for your tongue and to assess other problems that may be developing before you loose a large number of teeth to decay. As stated before, the greater concern is what the meth is doing to your body in a general sense. This drug is so addictive that you will need assistance stopping. Seek professional care for assistance in stopping and to obtain a complete physical exam to make sure you have no other problems medically.
