Raised leukoplakia patches on side of tongue
Leukoplakia. Close-up of raised leukoplakia patch- es along the side of a man's tongue. Leukoplakia can occur in the mouth or vulva,and is caused by thickening of tissue in the mucous membrane. It can be triggered by pipe-smoking or rubbing of the tongue against a denture,and is most common in the elderly and people with AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome). The patches are painless and usually disappear if the cause is removed. Occa- sionally,however,a leukoplakia patch can become cancerous. For this reason the condition is some- times treated by surgical excision under local anaesthetic
