A member asked:
Feels like a lump on the back part of my tongue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a ENT: The sensation of a bump in the back of tongue may just be swelling due to acid reflux, but it is also possible there is a tumor below the surface of the tongue that you can't yet see. Especially if you are a smoker or drinker you should see a doctor.
