What causes the tongue to be raw and burning with food or drink?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Vitamin deficiency: Deficiencies of b vitamins can cause such symptoms. Try taking multi-vitamin tablets that you can purchase over the counter. If the symptoms do not subside in a couple of weeks of vitamin treatment, please see a doctor. Avoid alcohol and hot foods, liquid or solid.

Usually Dry Mouth: Dry mouth is the most common. There can be many causes. The diagnosis is usually made by history & symptoms, which can vary from person to person. Like with many other conditions, you need to rule out all other possibilities, and there are many. It's important to have your dentist rule out other conditions which have similar symptoms and might be dangerous. Get professional help.
