Black tongue

My daughter who is 23 and has had her gallbladder out almost 3 yrs ago tongue turned black after vomiting this evening. I remember when she had her surgery her tongue did that and the nurse called the doctor and he said somethng about the acid in her stomach, I think? Anyway I was wondering what is causing this?
