Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.

As per your complain and presentation of symptoms tingling in tongue with swollen spit glands or salivary gland can commonly occur due to Sialadeinitis that is infection of the salivary gland..
Other cause of swelling is due to clogged duct of salivary gland.
The tingling of tongue can be due to inflammation of tongue secondary to infection or physical injury caused by toothbrush..

Nothing to worry, consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and in case of infection antibiotics like Augmentin and anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen and serratiopeptidase..

For tongue tingling gargle with a numbing mouthwash containing Lignocaine..
Avoid hot and spicy food..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
