It's formal name is Candida Albicans. Do you use a steriodal inhaler for asthma by any chance? If so, you must rinse out your tounge and throat each time. If it is a fungus, a doctor can prescribe Diflucan in pill form that has to be taken for several weeks. You should rule out thrush. All the best. ceven 06-10-2002, 05:07 AM usually means u have a virus... maybe you find it hard to digest food aswell?? candice2002 06-24-2002, 11:21 PM about a year ago i had the same problem...i had little white bumps on the back of my tounge and my throat hurt really bad. I went to the doctors and it was an infection. They gave me some pills and it was cleared up in like 3 days. good luck! |
