Are Red Bumps On The Back Of Tongue Due To Dog Bite?
I got a small dog bite yesterday and have cleaned it and put antibiotic ointment on it. The bite doesn't really hurt and doesn't look any worse since yesterday but I have red bumps on the back of my tongue that are irritating me today. I was just wondering if there's any connection between these two things?

Hi
With your query there is no relation but though you have cleaned the wound and had put antibiotic I suggest you to go for vaccination with prior consult to your doctor and coming to the bumps what you see are might be circumvallate papillae most of the times these are slightly elevated since you have noticed them suddenly after the dodv bite you are conscious you have not mentioned about any discomfort or any other symptoms so that we can rule out.hope thus is useful
