For some reason after I got home from school yesterday (I am a teacher), the sides of my tongue were sore. My husband said it's probably that my lymph nodes (sp?) are swollen. My throat doesn't hurt, but every time I swallow I can feel the sides of my tongue hurting a little. It's hurt all day today. Does anyone know the reason for this? Is my husband right? Oh, I just tried to look in the mirror and all I could see was a couple of bumps on each side. Nothing major.
