I had pain when I ate and found out it was from dry mouth which caused Thrush. Thrush is something we all need to watch out for. That will account for SOME of the sores on the tongue. It did for me.

The Medicine I use for it is liquid Nystatin. I thought I would not get thrush again after I was finished with treatment. Well I was wrong.

I hope this might be of some help to you. Ask your Dr. for help in this area.

Take care,
Diane
