White coated tongue

2019-08-04 11:47:53
I have white coated tongue and when I try to scrape off it doesn't clean. I also see red spots here and there on my tongue with some tiny red bumps on the tip like enlarge papillae. I cannot eat spicy food while earlier I used to. Please help. And it's not oral thrush.
