Whats this mean?!


Question:

Whats this mean?

I just got a girlfriend and we have done nothing but kiss(i dont know if this is related but...) I have some small bumps on the back of my tongue and my breath feels like it smells bad. This just started and I dont know what it could be... Does any one have an idea what this could mean?


Answers:

Most people don't know it and have never seen them but you have 8-12 circumvallate papillae at the base of your tongue arranged in a "V" formation. This sounds like what you may be seeing. If you stick your tongue out as far as you can, and tilt your head down you might be able to see them. I wouldn't worry about anything and if you think your breath smells bad brush, or use mouthwash/gum. Good luck with the girlfriend.
