Hi since about two days I felt something near the tip of my tongue. I didn't take it seriously however. It does not hurt or anything.Today I could still feel it and so I looked with a mirror and a magnifying glass. It is a tiny growth that looks like two tiny stalks, (like a tiny polyp)like the tiny harmless growth one sometimes gets in the crook of the elbow or by the neck. I have had a cold for the past week and have taken nyquil, airborne, some theraflu and some melatonin. Maybe a reaction? I live like a nun since my husband has cancer and takes Tarziva, so I don't think its something nasty like herpes. Should I go to my dentist to have it checked out? What could it be?
