A member asked:
I have 3 white spots on one side of my tongue and am concerned they may be something sinister ... they are not sore. ?

White spots: How long have they been there? How large? Do you use tobacco products? Answers to these question would help with guidance. Without them, suggest you see an oral surgeon for evaluation.
