Tongue Pimples

 

Why do the sides of my tongue hurt?

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.

  1. Do you get any bumps/lines/lesions on the side of your tongue? I get white spots and lesions on the sides of my tongue that are quite annoying because I smoke. Eating sour and certain types of food can cause irritation. I would start rinsing my mouth out with warm salt water....it could be a simple canker sore that has just not erupted yet.... it could be infection, Good luck
