What Can Cause Bumps On The Tongue While Suffering From Toothache?
I have bumps on the back of my tongue.They dont hurt or anything just found them there..I have been having tooth pain..Plus i have bumps on the front of my tongue but i burnt my tongue bad last night so i know where there from..Plus my newph has strep..but i dont have tongsu anymore.But has not ran a high temp but my toaht does burn but just random times not when im eating or sleeping..
Bumps at the back of the tongue if not painful or annoying then they are not due to any pathology and can be most probably due to a normal anatomic structure that is Circumvallate papillae.
Circumvallate papillae are large papillae present at the back one-third of the tongue and are present in typical V shape.
They are raised and large and can at times be misunderstood to be due to some pathology.
So you need not worry as I do not think there is anything pathological. However, a clinical exam can further confirm so please click pictures and send it to me so that I can advise you more precisely.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
