Yellow/Green tongue? Just me?

[Ambers]

Just wanted to ask a quick question.

My tongue is coated in a yellow/green film esp at the back. When I saw my dentist last, he said it was probably a sign of infection of some kind... I was run down at the time. This coating has remained and no matter what I eat/brush teeth etc, doesn't budge.

I have all the usual PA/anxiety things going on such as IBS, do you think it is connected to this? I am worrying that something is amiss?

Thank you for reading

no, I have a yellow tongue too! I am currently breastfeeding, and I thik for me it is being run down and possibly dehydrated as well. It brushed off sort of, but then is back in the morning. I am also getting lots of tonislloliths (horrible smelling balls from tonsils). my sympathies - i am going to try and drink more water and take some vitamins.

Thank you for your reply...I do drink quite alot of water. I have been taking vits mainly to help with my anxiety. Well done with the BF, I found it hard and I didn't have anxiety at the time - hope you are getting good sleeps :)

I get a yellow coating sometimes if I've been drinking a lot of tea or have been dehydrated. When I'm ill I get a thin white coating. My Mum gets a yellow tongue when she'd not well. Tongues are strange things at the best of times!
