Back of my tongue is Green?
I looked in the mirror at my tongue today and noticed the back was coated in green, what does this mean. I have looked on the internet but every site says something different? If anyone could help me I would appreciate it.

Thank you Paranoia... very tactful of you.
Another FAR more likely answer that Google will also give you is that it sometimes comes with having a cold or the flu. So if you've noticed you're perhaps sniffling or have a sore throat as well, it's not cancer. |

Go see your doctor before you refer to anything found on the internet.

It's probably nothing, but it could be smart to get it checked.

Clean it off with a toothbrush. Use a strong germicidal mouthwash. It's normal - part of growing up for some people. Just one more thing you have to deal with on a regular basis.
Or it's a sign of serious cancer, like Paranoia said. |
