A tongue that is constantly peeling for almost no reason at all is called a geographical tongue. Geographic tongue is a harmless (benign) oral condition that gives your tongue a map-like, or geographic, appearance. The distinct look of geographic tongue occurs when parts of your tongue are missing the layer of small bumps called papillae. This causes irregularly shaped smooth, red patches to form on parts of your tongue, like a rash. Although geographic tongue may look alarming, it doesn't cause any health problems and isn't associated with infection or cancer. Geographic tongue is usually painless but can sometimes cause tongue discomfort and increased sensitivity to certain substances. Geographic tongue often heals in one area and then moves (migrates) to a different part of your tongue. Geographic tongue is also known as benign migratory glossitis. If you have further issues that are of concern please contact your doctor as soon as possible.

Actually the tongue is packed chock full of all kinds of bumpy nodules to register taste, hot and cold, sweet or sour, salty or bland and it's more likely to be one of these.

Go see a doctor. You either have an infection (white stuff on the surface of the tongue) or may have injured something (a tongue should be pink if it has adequate blood flow.)
You should see a doctor, as it might be an infection.
What is the BEST ANTIBIOTIC?!?!?!?!? Antibiotics treat infection and its just a matter of what you can and can't take (if you're allergic to penicillin, for example). It sounds like you're going to get some antibiotics from someone who isn't a dentist or doctor and "hope" that helps. Don't do it. If the infection is so bad that it has spread, that's trouble. Secondly taking antibiotics will not make the impacted tooth suddenly go away. Make a dental appointment. Or if money is an issue, contact a dental school to see if you can get low-cost or no-cost treatment. ~ T
GO TO THE HOSPITAL! There is a big infection happening and the infection can go inwards and the outcome can be fatal. Don't risk it, get it checked out by a doctor!
