Got a Painful Cut/Sore/Scab on my Tongue

I woke up this morning and realized both sides of my tongue had a cut or sore kind of thing. It hurts to brush my teeth if the brush touches the tongue. My tongue also seemed whiter than normal and on the sides I could see the red flesh inside the tongue. It hurts to eat, drink, even to talk. I never realized how important the tongue is when talking, it's very hard to pronounce words and it hurts trying to talk. I also put a lot of hot sauce on my food today which made it burn even more when I could feel the heat going right inside my tongue. On one side a part of my tongue even came off, just like a little strand and it's painful as anything, I even have to be careful drinking water and be careful swallowing. I've only been having this problem for one day, my parents say it will go away on its own. But it's super annoying and irritating and painful.

Thrush or geographic tongue? Also, don't put hot sauce on your food- what are you stupid?

I heard some people say you can get a cut or sore on your tongue from being in cold weather. I don't see how that makes sense though. Oh yeah and I put hot sauce on everything

that'll be something lol

I would avoid hot sauce as it will likely irritate and make the area more painful as you saw. As mentioned, depending on how white-ish the tongue is(like spread and such), maybe it's thrush but not sure without seeing pics and such.

It could be thrush, but it depends on how "white" you mean.

I know, I know, Wikerrrpedia, but it gives a nice explanation and picture.

It's not that white and it's mostly the cut on both sides that's bothering me. Reading that article scared me though, I definitely don't want this to get any worse. Which I hope it won't. I mean this is the first time something like this happened to me. I have bit my tongue before by accident but that pain went away after a few hours.

If it's caused you enough problems to post on an internet forum about it, chances are you should probably be consulting a medical professional ;o
