Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM,

Read your query, as you have hard ball like swelling under tongue this can be due to Obstruction of Submandibular salivary gland it can be due to presence of salivary stone or due to enlarged lymph node.
For this I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for examination of swelling if needed go for investigations of salivary gland Sialography and treatment .

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.

Regards,

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

I would suggest you to get a thorough examination done by a DEntist, it could be a salivary gland swelling, nutritional defieciency..
Take multivitamin suplements.
At home take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.

Take care!
