Question

My tongue is red without coating, and it hurts when I eat salty or sour food. I’ve had stomach belching problems for nearly two years, and I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine for treatment.

Answer

The patient may have a peeled tongue, which is a sign of long-term malnutrition. It is recommended to participate in more outdoor activities, maintain a scientific and reasonable diet, improve nutritional status, and enhance immunity. Additionally, increasing the intake of vitamin C can help improve the condition.
