Does anyone know anything about Geographic Tongue?

Anyone have geographic tongue?

  • I've experienced some wierd symptoms with my tongue and did some research online and think it is geographic tongue. Does anyone know anything about it, have it, or know what causes it and how I need to treat it?

  • Answer:

    My daughter has it, and has had it since she was born. It doesn't hurt her and the doctor said it doesn't need any sort of treatment and that it's not something to worry about. He said it's often hereditary and that sometimes it shows up as a crack running down the middle of the tongue...so we looked when we got home, and my husband has one. He doesn't remember having the sore-looking patches on it as a child.
