Have Painful, White Lump On Tongue. Looks Like Verruca. What This Could Be?
hi i recently noticed a small white lump on the side of my tongue , it is slightly painful like a damaged taste bud ... but it isnt where my taste buds are. it sort of looks like a verruca as it is a round white lump with a slight dip in the middle..... do you have any ideas on what this could be. i have had it for 2days now. im a 16yr old female.

looks like a spot that was unknowingly bitten. if there are no sharp teeth that side. then apply some anaethetic gels over the lump. Be careful not to bite. It'll resolve.
