Skin Tag Type Growth Under Tongue, White, Cluster Of Sores In Mouth, Sore Lump Under Chin. Suggestions?
Noticed a skin tag type growth on one side under my tongue which was really red and painful a couple of days ago. It is quite a "string like" type growth. Since then the tip of it is now really white and no longer sore. Coincidentally maybe I woke up yesterday with a cluster if hold sores in the corner of my mouth and a sore lump under my chin - could these all be related?

Hi,
Your description is not very clear; I will try answering within the limited scope of your description on internet and not being able to examine you. The chain of events of a growth in mouth and a sore lump under your chin developing within the course of 2-3 days is suggestive of an infective lesion in mouth causing a lymph node enlargement also. But you should visit an ENT specialist so that it could be thoroughly examined and a biopsy be taken if required.
