Hello, It started a few days ago, I noticed tip of tongue sore,almost like a canker sore, by next day swallowing was semi painful. Day three portions of tongue feel like there on fire,and its feels like im swallowing lumps . I am currently working as a nurse in long term care. I do not wish to pass this on of its strep . I don t have a fever , very uncomfortable,and taste buds are shot. It feels good if I drink ice water, or something scratchy going down my throat . I have a slight pink tongue. Thank.you so much for your time.
