Geographic tongue can look different ways...in a fairly mild case, the tongue would have a slight loss of taste buds alongs the edges of the tongue. In a mre typical case, there would be what looks like bald patches on the tongue with white surrounding the patch, being clearly visible. A more severe case may develope a crack, some being 1/4 of a n inch deep.

How do you treat geographic tongue?

Geographical tongue is a condition when the tongue looks like there are raised continents on it. It moves around and looks 'geographic". It is not a yeast infection. It is also not cause by bacteria. There is no cause or 'cure' for it, but it has been said that Vitamin B can helps minimize it and the certain foods can make it worse (citrus and spicy are a couple). It occurs more often in children and some websites I went to say that she will outgrow it.
