Will have to examine you before we can comment. If it's asymptomatic , I think you should watch and observe. If you feel any discomfort I suggest you meet a dentist,white patches could be due to several reasons it could be due to fungal infections, or ulcerations, or due to consumption of tobacco etc. I suggest you avoid tobacco in all forms.Avoid alcohol. Aerated and carbonated drinks, oily spicy foods.Just as a precaution .Take for Cap Becozinc 1 cap daily for 15 days.

No worries just maintain oral hygiene. Its popularly known as geographic tongue. Sometimes dere might be burning sensation. Just maintain oral hygiene for improvement of oral effect. Its just wax and wane effect

Yeah it is serious. It can be due to any drug reaction or it can be pathological but one can give diagnosis only after observation and some test. What you can do is to avoid alcohol, tobacco , spicy food and keep ur gut healthy. So better visit a dentist. Thank you
