4 days ago i bit my tongue very hard, it swollen and has white/yellow mucus on it. how much time does it need to heal and how can i stop the pain?

Tongue bite: Would try brushing teeth/tongue and gargle/swish with salt water (1 table spoon salt to glass water- it will sting) 3 x a day( brush after every eating lower bacteria) , if not getting better in 12-24 hours consider f/u with doctor may need antibiotics as the mouth has lots of bacteria or antifungal for yeast infection in mouth.
