What Could Cause White Spot On Tongue?
I have a white spot on end of my tongue. U can see it all the time, it dose not hurt but I have had it for 5 weeks now. I have used mouth wash salt water and nothing works. Went to my docs and he said it was a skin tag. How did I get this and how painful it is to be moved? And how will it get removed?
