As such there is no cure for geographic tongue. But usually the condition is self resolving. The lesions may accentuate during the periods of stress. Don’t worry. It’s a harmless condition but you may at times feel uncomfortable consuming spicy foods. So avoid such foods. At times it may be associated with a few syndromes. If it’s bothering you a lot visit a qualified dentist who can rule out.
