Hi, I had gone through your query. I can assure you that this is simple problem and nothing to worry. Your query consists of two components. First component is black veins on the bottom surface of the tongue. That is a benign condition characterized by dilated and tortuous veins on the bottom surface of the tongue, which does not require any treatment. Second component is different sensation of tongue. Tongue will have taste buds to identify the taste sensations. Taste buds can’t alter the taste sensation. In your situation, I would like to rule out any possible ulcer present in the oral mucosa and surface and borders of the tongue. In majority of the patients ulcer would be the main reason for varying of taste sensation ranging from more spicy to burning sensation. If ulcer is absent any possible stomatitis may be found. I think this explanation would satisfy your query.
