What Causes Lower Back Pain, Cough, Black Patch/red Bumps Behind Tongue?
I have a weird pain in my lower back and my whole body feels weak. There is a slightly black patch on the back of my tongue and i have 2 red bumps on the back of my tongue. Each time i drink water it tastes like chemicals. I have a cough as well. Im coughing up thick yellow spit. What is this and how do i fix it?!!

Hello
The patches and swellings on the back of your tongue are due to an infection and will subside once you take the antibiotics for the infection. please meet your doctor for the prescription.Meanwhile you can start gargling with warm salt water and take steam inhalation 3-4 times a day, it will help.
