What Causes Little Bump Under The Tongue From Where The Pain Extending Towards The Neck?
Hi DR, I am inquiring about the little gland thingy under your tongue. This last weekend mine tweeked and it sends a pain down the side of my neck when it happens. Usually it just lasts for like 15 minutes then the pain goes away no more problems, but not this time. It hurts, if i eat anything it hurts or stings, what is going on???

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
The symptoms suggest me that you may be having blockage of the duct of the sublingual salivary gland,gland stones or swollen veins in the floor of the mouth.
I would suggest you
1.Reduce swelling and pain you can use ice and topical anesthetic agents.
2.Follow good oral hygiene habits.
3.Oral NSIADs.
Thank you.
