Nightfam! What would you do if you wake up one day and find your tongue looking like it’s covered in GREEN FUZZ!

This happened to a 64-year-old man after taking antibiotics for a gum infection. When doctors examined him, they found what looked like green, hair-like growths covering his tongue’s surface!

The condition (called “hairy tongue”) isn’t super common, but it does happen. While it looks alarming, it’s actually harmless. It’s caused by an overgrowth of tiny structures on your tongue called filiform papillae.

The combination of antibiotics, smoking, and poor oral hygiene can create this shocking sight.

The good news? After following his doctor’s advice to gently brush his tongue regularly, everything returned to normal within about 6 months!

So Nightfam, let this be your reminder: our bodies can do some pretty bizarre things, but most of the time, there’s a perfectly normal explanation. Maybe it’s time to show our tongues a little more love with that toothbrush!
