Suggest Cure For Swelling And Soreness At The Back Of Tongue
The taste buds on the very back of my tongue feel swollen. I have had a cough for 3 weeks & was treated for bronchitis but now I think its caused by the taste buds. Is this a possibility and how do I treat it? Will they swell enough to cut off my breathing?

Hi thanks for the query.
Those small bumps are nothing but taste buds only as you said.you need not worry about them.
they are not going to cut off your breathing.
Hope you are helped and feel free to ask further questions.
