How To Treat Enlarged Foliate Papilla On The Tongue?
I have enlarged foliate papilla on the right side of my tongue. I have them for quite some time now. My dentist did a "brush over" cancer test and it came back negative. However, they do not seem to be going away. They are also associated with a burning feeling in that area. Any comments or suggestions?
