Please consult a pediatrician directly. We have to check if it is oral thrush or not. It is not recommended to treat fungal infections at home

It is unlikely for a 1 month old to develop oral thrush...
If baby is on formula feed... Tongue may be whitish bcoz of that..... You don't have to do much for that
If oral thrush is there.... You have to use oral candid mouth paint
