Protruding Growth On Tongue, Prescribed Mouth Wash Cured, Again Came, Had Kidney Infection Stone And Cyst. Cancer?
I had a large protruding smooth growth on right side of my tongue. It was painful so I asked my dentist to look at it while he was doing some dental work. He gave me some mouthwash and said if it doesn't go away come back. It went away within a couple of days.
Tonight I noticed a white skin tag under my tongue. I looked because it was painful and I thought it might be a cold sore. I have not had a cold
But I recently had a kidney infection. I also have a lkidney stone and a kidney cyst. What is this whir skin tag? I want to know that it is NOT cancer. I've never smoked.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
If this white bump ( skin tag ) is on the same site of previous growth then it is a cause of concern.
If this is fresh then it may be ,
1 candida infection . Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by a an E N T so consult an E N T and get his opinion and treatment . In my opinion this is not a cancer ulcer according to history.
You mentioned that there are kidney infection and cyst.
If you are taking antibiotics for kidney infection then this may be a side effect of antibiotics . In that situation you have to consult your treating physician .
So deal according to condition. Good luck. Dr. HET
