Hello,
Thank you for sharing your concern in detail.
Based on your symptoms â bald tongue, inflammation of filiform papillae, upper gumline swelling without bleeding, and a burning/ulcer-like sensation without visible ulcers â it sounds like a complex issue that may be linked to:
ð¹ Nutritional deficiencies (especially Iron,
B12, Folate)
ð¹ Oral fungal infections (even if not visibly apparent)
ð¹ Stress-related conditions like Burning Mouth Syndrome
ð¹ Hormonal or systemic issues
Since youâve already taken B-complex and Rebagen with no relief, here are my suggestions:
Next Steps
Get these blood tests done (you can ask your physician for a prescription): CBC (
Complete Blood Count) Serum
Vitamin B12 Serum
Ferritin (iron) Folic Acid Blood
Sugar (Fasting) Visit a specialist in Oral Medicine & Diagnosis â preferably at a government dental college or hospital with expert evaluation facilities. Clinical Exam + Picture â If you can share a clear photo of your tongue and palate, it will help narrow down the diagnosis.
Health Tips
Mouthwash: Use Coolora or Hexidine mouthwash twice daily. Gel: Apply Mucopain or Dologel CT before meals to reduce burning. Tablet: only after doctorâs consultation. Avoid: Spicy food, smoking, alcohol-based mouthwashes, and excessive brushing of tongue. Please donât delay further â proper diagnosis is key. If you're in or near Mumbai or Pune, I can suggest nearby government dental colleges too. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Let me know if you need help reading the reports once done. â Dr. Nita Kalambe Shree Dental Care & Implant Center, Poladpur ð[Poladpur | Birwadi, Raigad District]
