What Causes A Red Circle With White Raised Lining Around The Tongue?
my 7 month old daughter has red cricle with white raised lining around it on her tongue. One will go away & another one appears. She is not wanting to take her bottle-probably because it is sore. Because not eating well she has been losing weight. Been going on for about a month & 1/2. She did have a yeast infection in her mouth a few months ago that she was treated for.

Hello,
According to the history probably it is again the yeast reactivated. In such conditions, we do a microscopic with a tampon in the tongue and see exactly what it is. After this will be the treatment. Try to avoid the bottle in these days she feels discomfort.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
