Suggest Treatment For Bite On Tongue

My girfriend bit my tongue extremely hard and now it is blood red underneath a day later and feels very sore underneath and on top near the tip. The pain is bearable but should i be concerned about the color as it seems to have turned to an even darker bood red underneath. Could this lead to anything worse or should it heal in time?

Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM,

Read your query, as you have traumatic bite on tongue and there is change in colour of your tongue this can be due to Heamatoma due to bite , dont worry for pain you can take pain killer like Diclomol or Paintol and you can apply ointment on tongue like Mugel or Mucopain . Do warm saline rinses and consult dentist for Visual examination of tongue .

Hope this will help you.
