Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The redness and pain in the floor of the mouth could be because of the ulcer secondary to trauma by the teeth since you have tongue tie, the chances of trauma to the tongue is more. The other possible cause of redness and pain could be inflamed salivary gland duct opening secondary to stone in the duct. consult a oral physician and get it ruled out. if it is a ulcer, then you can take topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel. apply 3-4 times daily before food. The tongue tie has to be treated by surgery. if it is a stone then get it removed surgically.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
