Suggest Treatment For Bumps On Tongue
Question: I have awakened about three times in the past week with a dry tongue. I drink some water to moisten it, but it currently feels sensitive and the tongue has a few bumps on it. What would cause it and what would help? I'm wondering if I've begun to sleep with my mouth open - maybe snoring?
Brief Answer:
Need picture for further comments.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I have read your query and medical history.
The cause of bumps are tongue bite or burn,allergy to food or drug,canker sore or may be oral thrush but it needs to be inspected to arrive at a certain conclusion.
