In the morning I have white spots on my tongue. During the day they disappear, but after eating something even slightly sour in these places, the tongue begins to burn. I rinse my mouth with disinfectant and soothing lotion, but nothing helps. Could it be athlete's foot? Is it possible that I will pass this on to my baby (I'm 7 months pregnant)? Are there any medications that can be used during pregnancy?
Yes, those white spots could beoral thrush . A visit to a dermatologist is essential, especially since you are pregnant. Please use the medications you recommend - they will not harm you or your baby.
