A member asked:
Palatoglossal arch feels bumpy only on touch. it looks normal om sight. are there taste buds in that area? is this normal?

Inappropriate exam: First, I don't know how someone can tolerate feeling their own palatoglossal arch without gagging. Second, there was no reason to do so: if you don't see anything abnormal, such self exam is pointless. Probably the "bumpy" feeling is entirely normal.
