Sorry to hear you're worried. Do you have a picture of his tongue or can describe the marks in more detail? What are you seeing that you think he's uncomfortable?
Have a question about your own pet?
Ask Dylan a questionAnswered from your description alone, without examining your pet. That makes this general information, not a diagnosis, treatment plan, or prescription, and it is not intended to establish a veterinarian-client-patient relationship. There is only so much anyone can tell from a message. For guidance specific to your pet, book an appointment so a vet can examine them properly.
