Suggest Treatment For Lump On Tip Of Tongue
There is a lump inside the tip of my tongue that feels sort of like a ball. Whenever I rub my tongue in between my teeth it feels like it moves on the under side of my tongue. It starts right around the end of the connection of the bottom of the tongue.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The lump on the tip of the tongue can be a traumatic fibroma secondary to repeated injury to the tongue by the teeth. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. If it is interfering with the occlusion or tongue movements, you can get it surgically removed under local anesthesia. If any sharp teeth are there, then it can be rounded off.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
