Question 4

i have a small bump under my tongue vain it didn't hurt?

Accepted Answer

Mucous cyst: There are many glands in the mouth to keep the moisture going. It is possible that this small bump is one of those glands that has become blocked up for some reason. Because there is no pain, I do not suspect infection just yet, but keep an eye on it. This spot may resolve spontaneously or may progress to become something more recognizable later.

Question 5

i have a thing under my tongue in the  mandibula... it is white and it got a little bit larger today . i have it since a few days ago and it hurts esp?

Accepted Answer

"Thing": "Thing" may be any one of hundreds of different oral lesions.  You need to be examined to determine the identity of your oral lesion.  Once diagnosed, the appropriate treatment can be administered.  Instead of suffering, make an appoint meant with your Dentist.

Question 6

i have a bump under my tongue that comes and goes. sometimes it hurts.  what is it?

Accepted Answer

Blocked Duct ?: You may have a blocked salivary duct. Have your dentist take a look.

Question 7

the two purple vains under my tongue hurt and there are tiny clear bumps under it.  ?

Accepted Answer

Purple veins: It's quite common to have "purple veins" under your tongue. However without personally examining you we can't determine the cause of the pain, the nature of the tiny clear bumps, nor if anything requires treatment. See your local General Dentist or an Oral Surgeon for an evaluation.

Question 8

i have a small bump under my tongue, it appears to be next to the frenulum. it looks liquidy, pinkish, and about 3 mm wide. it doesn't hurt .

Accepted Answer

Mucocele: This could be a Mucocele or mucous retention lesion. We all have many minor salivary glands throughout the mouth and are about the size of a b.b. pellet. Sometimes they can get blocked or clogged and a small balloon of salivary fluid forms. They usually do not hurt. You should have it checked out because in rare cases they can be caused by a minor salivary gland tumor and should be removed.

Question 9

under my tongue i have a bump that is swelled red and hurts! it's normally a bump but it's big and red and swelled. i don't know the medical term ?

Accepted Answer

Bump under tongue: Any lesion, sore or bump in the mouth that is sore, swollen and/or has lasted longer than 7-10 days should be examined clinically and visually, and possibly biopsied.
Make an appointment with your dentist or an oral surgeon.

Question 10

i've had this weird growth under my tongue for 1+ months now. its centered under my tongue toward the tip. red and tip is white. started to hurt today?

Accepted Answer

Need to be checked: Most minor wound on tongue will go away within a month period. It is hard to tell without seeing it, but judging from its location (being in the center tip), it may be from physical trauma such as accidental biting. Red typically means the area is inflamed, so it is important to see a dentist to find out the cause of this lesion.
