What Is The Reason For Heaviness On Tongue ?

I am 39 Years and with 82 Kgs. I have heaviness at the bottom back of my tongue and makes my tongue full at some point. My mouth tends to open by itself once in a while. I have to put my head far back or far down to feel a bit better. It is very uncomfortable. I was diagnosed with sinuses sometime back, are these two related. What is happening with the heaviness on my tongue. Please help me out.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Good Day
You may be suffering from polyps due to chronic sinusitis. Do you have problem while sleeping. Do you snore in sleep. Does it become better if you lean forward. Kindly visit the ENT Specialist for proper management of this issue.
