Brief Answer:
Salt water gargling and get back to us with picture
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM
It is difficult to diagnose without examination, so I would suggest you to upload the photos of your mouth (widely opened), for better assessment.
It might be due to tonsillitis or injury to the posterior part of the tongue which might have occurred while chewing food, most of the time it happens unknowingly.
Presently I would suggest you to do salt water gargling three to four times a day and avoid spicy food.
Get back to us with the pictures, I'll be glad to help you out.
Take care.
