HI
The tongue has small bumps all over it, this enable you to taste and enjoy food, if the bumps are white in colour this might mean that you have thrush, and it requires some medication to treat it, if they are red it could be a burn, from hot food, just keep an eye on them and if they have not cleared up in 2/3 days get them checked, you can rinse with warm salty water, this helps.
if you start to get a sore throat or something and your glands start selling you could have strep throat.. or it cold just be your taste buds. they look larger at the back.
