Are Withe Spots /bruises On Tongue A Normal Infection?

Yesterday I had surgery for the removal of a fibroadenoma and while i was under, i suppose I bit my tongue really hard because when i woke up the right side of my tongue felt bumpy and when i was in the car ready to go home i saw two tiny holes there. This morning I woke up my tongue still hurts a little and there is this whiteish coverings where the bite marks are. Is this normal or an infection?
