Suggest Medication For Soreness In The Tongue

I have an issue with my mouth. I m pretty sure I have Thrush. I just finished taking some pretty strong antibiotics and I think that s what caused it. But now my tongue is sore and there are tiny red spiky looking things under my tongue. Can you please help?

HI

Thanks for posting your query .

See Thrush is a fungal infection and it would look like white curdy spots on the throat . You description is not fitting into Thrush.
Your description is still suggestive of Viral or Bacterial infection . I advise you to consult your doctor again and get examined. Ask for Throat swab Culture sensitivity test which will help in detecting what is the cause of infection of your throat.

Also do salt water gargling, drink hot water, Avoid Non veg and oily food . Avoid Citrus Fruits.

Hope you find this information useful.
Any clarifications or Queries feel free to ask.
Happy to help you.
Regards.
