How can i heal an accidental wound on my tongue?

Leave it alone: The tongue is very vascular and usually heals very well on its own. If it is a large lesion, you may need to see a dentist or oral surgeon for stitches. If it is small, leave the area alone, use warm salt water rinses several times a day to help relieve pain, and take Ibuprofen for pain as needed. If you have any doubts, go see your dentist.

Tongue wound: Most minor wounds to the tongue, for instance accidentally biting the tongue, will heal themselves. It is important to not aggravate or irritate the wound. In all cases, you should have the wound checked by a dentist to make sure it is not infected and is healing properly.

Naturally: Let your own body heal itself. However, avoid hot, spicy and sharp foods. Try to rest your tongue if possible. Consider placing ice on the tongue once the injury occurred to minimize the amount of swelling.
