Do you breast feed him? He may be having fungal infection of tongue such as oral candidiasis. You can start him nystatin oral drops, 2.5 ml x thrice a day for 5 days. Can you take a picture and post here?

Please get him checked by Pediatrician.
Possibly fungal infection.
excessive use of probiotic ecotec may be cause

it's not a complication of probiotic. most likely fungal infection. kindly post some pic or consult a paediatrician in personal for further consultation. thanks
