Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
There can be many reasons for this lump on the tongue,
-First it can be possible that you had a trauma on the tongue earlier which has caused this lump.
-Second it can be possible that there is some infection inside that lump.
To get it confirmed you have to visit a good dentist, as he will go for some investigations and then confirm the diagnosis.
Hope it will help you.
