What Does Unusual Vein Underneath Tongue Indicate?
Hi, I have an unusual vein that pops out of place at different times underneath my tongue and a white pointy thing pops out like ther's a hole in my vein, I have to re-arrange it, pop it back into place but it causes my gland to swell. Any idea what this might be?

Hello thanx for queiry.prominent veins on the undersurface of tongue..white thing could be due to salivary stone..u may need lemon peppermints to increase salivation.. U may need investigations like ultrasound examination and sialography-if it is salivary stone..kindly consult a oral surgeon for a check up and treatment... Hope it helps..take care..
