What Does Huge Painful Lump On Side Of Tongue Indicate?
I have a huge lump on the side of my tongue in the back. It hurts when anything touches it, and I can barely swallow any food. I can only drink. What is it?
If it helps, I'm currently taking prescribed pills for my future root canal, and for my toothache (which doesn't help, cause it's still hurting at the moment).
