I have read your query and understand your concern.

After reading your clinical history it appears that you are most probably having glossitis.

If I were your treating Doctor for this case, I would advice you

Plenty of fluids,

tab Vitamin C twice daily &
multivitamin minerals antioxidants syrup twice daily.

You will get relief.
