<bot>: White Spots on the Tongue
1. White spots on the tongue are usually caused by a fungal infection called thrush.2 Thrush can be treated with antifungal medications, such as nystatin or miconazole.3 It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully when taking these medications.4 You may also want to consider changing your diet and avoiding foods that contain yeast, such as bread, pasta, and beer.
