Tongue Pimples

Anyone ever have a bump on the left side of their tongue with a sore throat on the left side only?

So about 2 days i woke up and i have a sore throat but it only hurts on the left side of my throat. It hurts when i swallow and sometimes when i talk. I have a bump on my tongue on the left side it doesn't really hurt but it's uncomfortable when i touch it with my tooth or something. Also, my left ear is starting to hurt. It's all my left side lol. anyone ever expirience this and if so what could it be?

1. All the time. Just a one-sided cold. lol, who knows why? Sometimes it moves to the other side later.
2. It sounds like an infection to me. See your doctor :)
3. you could have strep throat. does it hurt to swallow, and is there a funny taste in your mouth? i used to get strep all the time as a kid, and it always hurts on just one side at first. get to a doctor if it's strep. the sooner you get on medicine, the better.
4. If it gets really uncomfortable, I'd say you have an infection on that side. Yes, it's possible. Just like babies, they get an ear infection on one side. Do you sleep on your left side often? If so, if the infection was on that side, and you layed down for a long period of time the mucus would build up on one side and cause more pain. If in a week you get worse as opposed to better, I'd see the doc for some antibiotics. I woke up with a small bump on my right side of my tongue today with no other symptoms. I have no idea why...? :) Get well soon!
