While this is a harmless inflammation on the tongue, it affects the surface area. In this condition, the tongue is usually covered with pinkish-white bumps on the tongue. Dr. Vass lists other conditions that might be linked to this tongue condition, such as inflammation, histamine intolerance, immune dysregulation and nutrient deficiencies.
Dr. Vass recommends several tests for the early detection of this condition: CRP, ANA, Vitamin D, and zinc.
In the words of Dr. Vass: Don’t ignore what your tongue is showing you. It can be an early sign of deeper dysfunction, long before it shows up in standard labs. Test deeper if something’s off.
