HI,

Thanks for asking the query,

Oral infections can lead to tongue swelling it can be due to viral infections such as herpangina or bacterial infections like streptococcal, swelling of tongue or lips is seen in neurofibromatosis.

It can also have resulted from prolonged cold, or due to ulcerations or tongue biting.
I would suggest you to visit Oral Surgeon for clinical examination and evalaution which helps in excat diagnosis and treatment.
Meantime you can do symptomatic treatment at home by maintaining good oral hygiene to prevent superinfection, use antiseptic mouthrinse and antioxidant suplements.

Hope this helps out.

Regards...

Hello there ,

Thanks for writing your query,

Appearance of recurrent swelling on the tongue indicates inflammation .

Recurrent trauma to the tongue may lead to swelling and pain.

It may be caused due to several reasons like deficiency or certain vitamins especially vitamin B12 and vitamin C.

start with multivitamin supplements for 7 to 10 days and vitamin C lozenges will help in resolving the problem.

avoid alcohol , carbonated drinks , tobacco chewing and smoking as these may worsen the area affected.

Apply oral antiseptic ,analgesic ointments like dentogel or mucogel topically over the affected area

if the symptoms do not subside with this you need to consult a dentist.
exact diagnosis can be made only after clinical examination and evaluation , consult an oral surgeon and get the examination done.

i hope this helps ,

take care.
