Lump on tounge for a year or so doesn't hurt a d no other symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May need biopsy.: Has it been growing over the year or has it stayed the same size? Does it ever drain anything? Do you smoke, or have you smoked in the past? A local evaluation would be a good idea, as this may require biopsy.
