I have recently had terrible sores on side of my tonque and under my tongue. there are spots on palm of both hands and mt tongue burns.

Hello,
The symptoms you seem to suffering from secondary stage of syphilis until proved otherwise.
During the secondary stage, you may have skin rashes and/or mucous membrane lesions in the oral cavity. This stage usually starts with a rash on one or more areas of your body.
The rash can look like rough, red, or reddish brown spots on the palms of your hands and/or the bottoms of your feet.
In view of the above, I advise you to consult your doctor as soon as possible for proper clinical examination and to carry out serological tests to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
