Tongue Pimples
What are the red bumps on my tongue a sign of?
I recently developed several (10-15) red bumps on the back third of my tongue. No, they are not normal taste buds, they are raised and larger than normal. So much so that when I swollow they irritate my throat. They are absolutely painless but I am concerned because now there is one on the roof of my mouth towards the back. Any suggestions? I was recently on a two - three week drinking binge and wasn't eating very healthy and smoking about a pack a night (not normal for me)... is this a result? Should I visit a doctor or give it some more time?

- The state of your tongue can be a direct indication of how healthy you are. I say concentrate on eating really well for two weeks... then if there is still no improvement, visit your GP.
- please visit a doctor right away that does not sound very good. sounds suspicious.....
- No wish to alarm you, see your Doctor now, time is of the essence.
