Avatar n tn Hi Dr. Yesterday I felt a sore lump on my tongue, it was red and raised a little. This morning I checked and the lump is still there but now all the little papules (is that the right word!?) are yellowish white. The lump/bump is right in the middle of my tongue. It's sore to the touch and not a very hard lump but rather large for a bump on the tongue, about the circumference of an eraser head.

Avatar f tn Immune disorders can also cause tongue bumps. Mouth cancer can cause a lump or area of thickened skin on the side of your tongue. A clinical examination is must. Treatment will depend on the underlying cause. Seek second opinion if the symptoms are severe or persistent. Keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar n tn It was stiff and I noticed I had a small lump on the UNDERSIDE of the TIP of my tongue on the LEFT side only when I flexed my tongue. If I left it perfectly still, and limp, there was no lump. But, if I move it even slightly, it pops out. If you look at my tongue, it's not symmetrical at all. It started to impact my ability to speak clearly and the area gets very stiff when I talk a lot. To the point it feels like a Charlie horse. Hurts!
Avatar n tn I have hard small lumps on the under-tongue where the duct lining and middle of the under tongue (that flap that kind of holds the tongue in place) since last Sunday-9 days ago. I also have a lump below my left jaw line that swelled that night that I noticed the hard nodules under my tongue. I have been very tired since then. My mom also said that my cheeks look bigger than normal..more like the jaw line - above it - and i feel no pain there.
Avatar f tn I have had a lump on the roof of my mouth on the hard palate for around 2 years. I’m a male and currently 22 years old. It’s never caused me any pain or done any harm. I don’t believe that it has grown either. The middle of my hard palate feels as though there is a bony lump there, and then it also feels as though there is a small lump to the right of it, on the right side of the hard palate as well. I can always feel the lump with my tongue.
Avatar n tn If i poke my tongue completely out and look at the back of my throat, there seems to be a lump on my tongue (can only see it when the tongue is completely poked out and i've tilted my head down a little) What is it? Could it be cancer?

Avatar m tn I got up to look in mirror then a instant sudden lump started forming under my chin on my neck throat area. It feels like a tumor but would think tumor just doesn't pop up. the lump feels like it goes down then come back i think. It hurts under my back tongue to open my mouth but that kinda went down. What could this be.? What you think the sudden lump that formed is? Not cancer i hope.
Avatar m tn I have two bumps about 5mm each on the left side of ny tongue. They're painless, fleshcoloured and have the same density as my tongue but they're definitely not just part of the usual formation. Anyone have any ideas? Freaking out a bit. Had them about 4 days.
Avatar n tn I mistakenly didn't include its on the bottom of my mouth,if I curl my tongue down slightly to the left,thats where it is.
Avatar f tn When I felt my tongue, I noticed there was a lump inside of my tongue that is painful to press on. The lump is not visible, but can be felt if I grab the top and bottom of my tongue. It is located on the right side of my tongue near the tip of my tongue. I went and seen my doctor today and she diagnosed it as a thyroglossal cyst. In doing more research, those cyst do not typically appear at the front of her tongue.

Avatar f tn I recently noticed a small white spot/lump on the left side of my tongue and I am schedule to see my dentist in a day or so. I am 44 and have schewed tobacco and drank for the better part of 20 yrs. I am well aware of risks of oral cancer and have recently stop using both. Was wondering if there are any other results that could possibly exist versus my focusing on the most probable, oral cancer. Realy scared and worried.
Avatar m tn Then a instant sudden lump started forming under my chin on my neck throat area. It felt like a tumor but would think tumor just doesn't pop up like that. The lump went down about 15 min after it formed. It hurt under my back tongue to open my mouth but that went down as well. What could this be.? Extremely weird that the lump formed then went away. What you think the sudden lump that formed is? Not cancer i hope. Is it something serious you think?

Avatar m tn It is possible that this lump is a bump of extra bone called torus palatinus.It is a lump of bone which grows on roof of mouth. It is usually painless and may not need treatment unless it is very big. Another possibility is that it could be a mucocoele.A mucocoele is caused by blocked salivary glands and appears clear or as a blue tinged growth. Tooth abscess can cause painful bump on the roof of mouth. Treatment will depend on the underlying cause. See a doctor and get it examined.
Avatar n tn I have this lump in my lower left gums, right where my Molars start. It is a hard lump that moves slightly but then goes right back to its original spot. It's not white or anything, and there is no pain. This might also be helpful: My lower gums on that side seem to be a really hard swollen towards the teeth region. The lump has been there for about 2 weeks and it didn't "grow" there. it just kind of appeared. Another quick detail, the lump is about the size of a BB.

Avatar m tn My friends son has developed a lump under his tongue which is painful and has put him off his food hence weight loss. She lives in Indonesia where medical care is costly and does not appear to be up to the standards you would expect. He has been prescribed a steroid ointment (for topical use only ?????) which has reduced the size of the lump but it then returns when the ointment is not used. I have suggested she ask her GP to undertake blood tests fbc ue b12 folate but after that I am at a loss.
Avatar n tn I have a hard like lump on my neck thats sore. No puss, just swollen. Its at the bottom of my beard area, so it could well be an ingrown hair although I don't really get them, only occasinally, and I'm concerned following an episode of unprotected cunnilingus around 4 weeks ago that it could be a Syphilis chancre? Has anyone ever heard of a chancre on the neck - is it possible?
Avatar n tn Hi....I have a small pea sized lump under my tongue on the right side. It's located in the valley of my mouth between the floor of the tongue and the gum line. It is below the tissue. It is painless and has there for 2 years or so. It has not gotten larger. I asked my dentist about it a year and a half ago...but she said it was likely nothing. Is this something I should be more concerned about? Does anyone know what this could be?
