Where exactly is the redness on your tongue?
A picture can help understand your symptoms in a better manner.
Do you use a metallic tongue scraper to clean your tongue?
Or do you have any old crown in your mouth or do you grind or clench ur teeth during sleep, that might also explain the redness on the lateral surface of tongue.
Again any habit of chewing or smoking tobacco can also be related in this scenario.

If this is confusing you a lot you can visit any dentist or consult me as per your preference.
