@drkeithsiau Black hairy tongue syndrome (BHT). The cause is uncertain, but it is thought to be caused by accumulation of epithelial squames and proliferation of chromogenic microorganisms. There may be an increase in keratin production or a decrease in normal desquamation.
@bharmaltayabi @drkeithsiau Based on the image of dark pigmented spots on the tongue and the symptom of fatigue, this could indicate Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, which involves mucocutaneous pigmentation and GI polyps that may cause anemia and tiredness. However, it might also be black hairy tongue or Addison's

114 million adults vape nicotine worldwide now. And not one of them has "black hairy tongue." When you lie like this, are you just misinformed, or are you deliberately just pulling harms out of your arse?
Yep, it’s true—black hairy tongues can be a side effect of vaping and smoking, among many other health effects.
Holy crap that's a real thing. My wife in a past life was a dental hygienist. She would have to try and manage the black hairy tongue for a patient ,they are coarse and it smells... do not google it and look at pics. You have been warned..
Black hairy tongue? That's a side-effect of a hangover after a long night of quaffing Murphy's stout.

I do hate those commercials though. They scare the crap out of me with all the side effects.
One time my grandpa had something called Black Hairy Tongue.

Black hairy tongue should be differentiated from 'pseudo–black hairy tongue;' 'tongue darkly stained due to medications (eg, bismuth subsalicylate or minocycline), chemicals, or food coloring, but the filiform papillae are not enlongated.'...
