What Is The Cause Of Irritation In Tongue?
Hey. The sides of my tongue have been irritated for a few months. I used my teeth to scratch it, but now white bumps have appeared on the sides of my tongue sort of towards my throat. I don t think I ve changed my diet and it s really becoming an issue.

Hi, thanks for your query.
In my opinion, you might be having oral thrush.
If I were your treating doctor, I would have prescribed candid mouth paint for local application for 5 days+ antihistamines.
If symptoms persists, then please consult with the doctor.
Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
