Bubble on tip of tongue won't go away?!


Question: Bubble on tip of tongue won't go away?
I have a small white bubble-thing on the tip of my tongue. I thought it was just one of those things you get from having too much sugar, but it's gotten bigger than that and it's been on my tongue for almost 2 weeks now. I'm not eating a lot of sweets or anything. What is it?

It could be an inflamed taste bud. Rise it with warm salt water or a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and warm water.

If it doesn't get better in a few days, go to the doctor



Tiny bump on tip of tongue: The most likely possibility is a benign growth called a fibroma (irritation fibroma). Most fibromas in the mouth are thought to arise following local injury or trauma, like biting your tongue. Some can grow to substantial size; no treatment is necessary unless it gets bigger or is in the way of speaking or eating.
