Tongue Pimples

 

I sometimes get these little white bumps on my tongue. What are they?

When it happens, it's usually only one or two. What causes these and how do I prevent them from coming back? They look like a white head only on your tongue.

  1. I THINK that they're overgrown taste buds. The only way i have ever heard of getting rid of them is preventing bacteria build up in your mouth by brushing (and flossing) more often. I hope i was a little bit of a help!
  2. probly canker sores. they go away after a few days, but theres not a way to prevent them
  3. Sounds like canker sores to me. Don't eat as much sugar and you can heal them with lots of milk or anything high in calcium.
  4. if the bumps also make your breath smell bad then it might be thrush! Yes Thrush! Adults get it too! The simple fix for this is to eat yogurt at least 2 times a day. The live cultures in the yogurt will kill the fungus or thrush and make it go away on it's own!
