Get medical attention right away if you have tongue swelling that obstructs your airways. A very swollen tongue can indicate a severe allergic reaction. This requires an immediate visit to the hospital.
Severe COVID symptoms that require emergency care include:
Research has shown that Covid can negatively regulate formula regulation and cause oral canker sores. Candida fungus can proliferate in your mouth if its immune formula is weak.
COVID tongue may last as long as other symptoms. It can take 10-14 days to recover from COVID, but it depends on how severe your infection is.
You may not necessarily have the covid just because your tongue is swollen or full of packages. Its tongue may appear due to an allergic reaction, a skin -related skin condition, mouth injury, hormonal changes or nutritional deficiencies.
