20 years ago, I had a mucocele removed from the underside of my tongue at the base, NOT the
tip. Since then, I have had some numbness on the TOP of the
tip of my
tongue on the left side. Nothing major, but it was a change for me. No big deal; learned to deal with it. Fast forward twenty YEARS! 6-months ago, I started to experience pain in my tongue TIP. 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.
