I've had a fever for 3 days, bad cough for 7, now my tongue is white! why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oral hygiene: I'd get checked by an m. D. Your tongue could be coated from the bacterial imbalance that is taking place. Again, check with your m. D. To determine if it's viral or bacterial. In the meantime, improve your oral hygiene by brushing twice a day, flossing once a day, and brush your tongue thoroughly, especially way back.
