Differential diagnostic value of tongue examination in acute and chronic pathology
In daily practice, any medical professional always examines the tongue, but it is difficult to obtain diagnostically significant information without a thorough, simultaneous examination of the oral cavity. In this regard, it is necessary to recall the generally accepted scheme of detailed examination of the oral cavity: lips, teeth and dentures are examined, including anomalies of dental development, caries, periodontal condition; gums; transitional fold; cheek mucosa; condition of hard and soft palate; tongue, sublingual area; pharynx. Lymph nodes are palpated - submandibular, deep cervical, parotid, occipital. The condition of salivary glands is examined.
