Hi, my two year old son has a very red circular patch on his tongue, I brush his teeth every night and have never noticed it before. He has been complaining that his good tastes fizzy but has been eating as normal. No other symptoms either. I have picture but not sure how to attach. Can you give me any idea as to what this might be? Thanks in advance
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The red circular patches on the tongue could be because of the decapitation of the tongue. It can be a geographic tongue or median rhomboidal glossies. This ca occur secondary to nutritional deficiency or anemia or stress. Nothing to worry about this consume more of green leafy vegetables. Consume fruits containing iron. If it becomes symptomatic then consult an oral physician to rule out this condition from other lesions like erosive lichen plans. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
