What is going on with my tongue?

My tongue and mouth have been feeling very dry for about 3/4 weeks now. It’s even difficult to swallow. It’s not painful. Drinking water isn’t helping at all. I already have so many health problems that I dread adding another but (of course), I will seek treatment if it’s anything serious.
Thank you for time!

I (22F) have these weird marks that kinda look like freckles. They don’t hurt and I’ve kinda just noticed them. They have been here for maybe a month. I’ve started drinking more water about 3 or 4 litres a day.

Multiple lumps on neck

I am 18, 6 foot 2, 77kg, male, i do not take medication but I take supplements like zinc and fish oil and I don't smoke regularly. I found 2 swollen lymph nodes in my neck around 5 weeks ago, they were in vertical to each other, l went to the doctor and it was the usual come back in 2 weeks if they persist, over the two weeks I had multiple more pop up and go away but the first 2 remain. However, these two weeks I smoked cigarettes and drank frequently. I had a blood test and it came back positive for mono although I haven't got any of the symptoms apart from inflamed lymph nodes. The 2 lumps are hard, immovable and are slightly painful. I've had a few pop up and go down in various locations, one in each armpit which gave me server pain, however the main 2 have been present the whole time and are about the size of a marble. Obviously I'm having major panics about it being cancer but I'm not sure what else it could be, if anyone has any idea please let me know.
