Hello 26 male i brushed my teet under my tongue 2 days later sore that has been for 9 days not going away not changing causes?

Lesion: MUST be seen by Dentist ASAP. Could be abrasion, burn, draining abscess, gum disease, bacterial/virul/fungal infection, oral cancer, pre-cancerous leukoplakia, or hundreds of other problems. Bite the bullet, call a Dentist for an appointment now.
