Hi..
Thanks for the query..

It looks like there is irritation and inflammation of the tongue tip that can be due to a number of causes like allergic reaction with MDMA, tongue biting post MDMA intake or regular tongue biting habit..

So in case if it happens always after Meth intake then it is probably a side effect of it..

So my suggestion is to first of all avoid Meth intake in any form..
As far as tongue burn is concerned, you can apply a combination of a mild steroid oral paste and a numbing gel over it..
You can do cool compresses over it and suck ice pops..
Take Vitamin B complex supplements..

If the tongue does not seems to get better consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
