Lump under tongue... :o(

[Rubyrose]

I was just wriggling my tongue about in my mouth and I noticed a lump under my tongue. It isn't on the tongue but on the soft bit that connects the tongue to the gums! It is a sall soft lump. I don't know if it is an ulcer because it isn't sore and doesn't appear to have the head of an ulcer! I don't think it has been there long, otherwise I would have noticed it! Maybe a day or two! But it is quite big! :o(

Has anyone had this before? It's weird!

small soft lump*

stop muff diving... when the tongue is 'extended' it causes that very part of the underneath of your tongue to rub across the top of your bottom front teeth... the continual friction can cause a small lump to appear... similar to a callus... ;o)

Ignore G-Spot Rubyrose
lots of people get them without any ill effects, they normally take a couple of days to go away, it's just a bit irritating to know it's there. Hang in there till about Friday then you'll be ok
Hope that helps

But where is it situated.. it impossible for that part of my tongue to touch my teeth! It's more on the base of my mouth....not on my tongue!

[Rubyrose]

Hmm ok.... it better be gone by Friday.... I have plans!

It is sore now coz I am poking it!

Mrknowall - Are you bragging or trying to comfort me? Lol

Hey Bez... I haven't been on for yonks.. that's why. Been in and out for the last week though. I am off to bed now... eyes are barely open!

Thanks all. xx
