What Causes Swelling Along With White Spots On The Base Of Tongue?
The bottom of my tongue has a few white skin tag type things on it and the base of my tongue ( on the bottom) is swollen a little, red and has white spots on it as well. It feels like when you get a lie bump on the top of your tongue- it s just on the bottom- I was curious to what is going on? It has been like this for about a week or more...
I reviewed your history. These symptoms indicate ulcers of the tongue in the form of aphthous ulcers or ulcers of some other etiology. The treatment is by the use of antiseptics and analgesic mouth gels for symptomatic relief.
Thank you
