What Does A Flesh Color Lump On The Side Of Tongue Indicate?

I had a flesh color lump on the side of my tongue for a few months. Recently it has turned white. The oral surgeon said it was a wart due from std! I have been married for 11 years. Could this mean he cheated? Is this contagious and why isn't it spreading all over my mouth? Could it be something else?
