Need exam: Hi Sorry to hear that you have been suffering with these symptoms the last few weeks. For now, try to keep up fluid intake with clear liquids, but I would recommend trying to be seen by a local physician as soon as possible. Your symptoms are broad enough that you need to have an in depth conversation with a doctor and an exam to be fully treated. Hope this helps, get well soon

Check up : Multiple potential causes, a good medical checkup might be a good place to start. The findings in your tongue can represent what is known as thrush, which is an infectious process often treated with nystatin "swish and swallow".
