What Causes Tenderness In The Tongue?

I felt some tenderness in my tongue yesterday and couldn t see any change in colour or anything really but can feel that there is a peaceful sized hardship lump on the centre of the tongue. No other symptoms - never happened before, hasn t got any worse in 24 hours - should I be worried or see GP?
