Helloo.read through your query and I feel that the yellowish and red color of the tongue can be due to fungal infection(candidiasis).it has caused inflammation of the taste buds at back of the tongue and roof of your mouth...due to this fungal infection there is decapitation of taste buds resulting in burning mouth.but nothing to be worried in this...you have to do brushing twice daily...do chlorhexidine mouth rinse daily...apply statin topical gel to the tongue and roof of the mouth...do tongue scraping (tongue contains max load of microbes beyond our imagination). Chat Doctor. Above all reduce STRESS AND BE COOL!!.follow this for a week or two...after that still no reduction in your problem meet a dentist and according to the clinical presentation he will plan the treatment....be cool...hope your benefitted something from this reply.have a healthy day!!!
