Burning or chapped tongue

Burning or chapped tongue

What has caused my tongue to feel like its burning or chapped? IAt times I feel bumps on the side or toward the tip of my tongue, so I try biting down on the bumps or squeezing them with my finger, which of course just worsens the condition. I have tried peroxide, salt water which relieves it some.

Two common causes of burning tongue is an allergic reaction or dry mouth.  Are you taking any medications?  Does your mouth ever feel dry?   Do you ever have problems eating, speaking, or swollowing without liquid help?
When did this problem start?  Did you change any foods, toothpastes, mouthwashes around that time?

I have had these symptoms for a while now, at least 2-3 weeks. The doctor said it was Stomatitis (sp)? Mine had started literally after giving a chick oral sex, and then had the burning sensation on my tongue including the red bumps and a metallic taste, (thought my crown was leaking or something lol) Anyway after a few days the redness and bumps have become less and almost non-existant, I had then went to an STD clinic and thought it was from Chlamydia but when further examined the nurse said it looked more like an allergic reaction (could I be allergic to P***y??? lol) anyway I'm guessing in all due time things will eventually clear up, good luck!
