I Have Tongue Numbness While Eating, Taking Anxiety Medication
My boyfriend and I both have had some tongue numbness , only when eating . He was diagnosed with thrush a while back, and it went away after treatment. Both of our tongues are still white however, but it scrapes off when brushing. We are both taking the same anxiety medication which may be causing the dry mouth and the white tongue, but the numbness when eating is strange. Any advice?
