Question 1

ive got 2 tissue tags underneath my tongue. recently ive been getting alot of pain on 1 of them
when ive looked closely one seems to have a white spot?

Accepted Answer

Likely normal: Plicae Fimbriata. This is a normal finding under the tongue. May look like little fringes. If you have been sticking your tongue out over the tops of your bottom teeth, then the white spot could be irritated tissue. Check the edges of the bottom teeth for sharpness if this applies. Otherwise, see your Dentist if it does not improve in a few days. Good Luck.

Question 2

i got a pimple inside my earlobe. i've been applying aloe vera w/a qtip is that ok? its sensitive even when i touch the tragus. what else could i do?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: This could be more than a pimple if you are that tender. Rec to apply a warm compress a few times daily. Aloe will not help. If it is very red, swollen or tender, consider seeing a doctor. Could also try over the counter antibiotic ointment.

Question 3

hi i had a bump on my mole that felt like a skin tag, it burst last night and bled alot, i'm scared it could.be a sign of melanoma?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

why do i need to chew ice alot?

Accepted Answer

Habit: We need to eat, and drink water, and breathe.  Feeling one must chew ice or some other nonessential behavior means it may have risen to a habit or even a compulsion.  Compulsions usually interfer with activities and tend to produce a lot of anxiety if they are nto performed.  Clincial psychologists can help with habits and compulsions with cognitive behavioral techniques.

i have low rectal tag , what could be?

Accepted Answer

Some possibilities: If a person was not born with a tag there, then it often is a hemorrhoid tag at the anus. Since it is hard for a person to see that area of his body, a primary care doctor should take a look. Sometimes warts or less commonly other lumps, masses, or tumors can be there.

Can they have sores in their mouth?Yes.Can they go about their day unconcerned about the drool? Certainly!
