My 28 year old daughter has a deep red circle on the tip of her tongue about the size of a quarter. It is much deeper in color than the rest of her tongue and is definitely circular. It has been there for about 3 weeks without change. She does not drink or smoke or chew tobacco. She has good mouth health habits. What could it be indicating?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The red circle at the tip of the tongue can be a benign migratory glossies or erythematous candidiasis. Consult an oral physician and get it ruled out. The benign migratory glossies occurs secondary to nutritional deficiency, stress... If it is benign migratory glossies no need of any treatment, if it is painful, then you can take topical anesthetic and analgesics like Anabel gel. Apply 3-4 times daily before food. If it is candidiasis, Then you can take topical antifungal agents like candid mouth paint, apply 3-4times daily for 1\u00a0week. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
