Dear Practo User
In the image that you have attached it appears to be Keratosis ie the whitening of the top layer of tongue due to friction . If there are no symptoms ie burning sensation in that area then nothing to worry about . If any symptoms are present then kindly get a clinical evaluation done .
Next Steps
Evaluation of symptoms
Clinical examination
