What Causes Green Tongue And Bad Taste In Mouth?
For quite a while now i have been waking up in the morning with a green tongue. When i brush it comes off easily but soon comes back later in the day. I also get a bad taste in my mouth and when i wake up it is a really dry. The green on my tongue looks like mucous. Please give me some advice.

thanks for your query, i have gone through your question, the green tongue could be because of chromogenic bacterial infection or superadded fungal infection. it can be because of the hairy tongue also....consult a oral physician for complete examination and diagnosis...you can use mouth washes and maintain tongue hygiene by brushing...
