White patch tip of tongue

Suddenly there's a diamond shaped white patch on the top, towards the tip of my tongue. It wasn't there this morning. I just saw it about 10 minutes ago.

Hi, is the white patch scrapable? Does it sting on eating spicy foods? How is your general health? What about any tobacco abuse?
