A member asked:
What are these white ulcers on the tip of my tongue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can't tell: There are many causes ranging from food sensitivity, virus, trauma, like biting your tongue, so it is not possible to answer your question. But most of these will heal within 7 to 10 days. If the ulcers persist or are increasingly painful contact your dentist for an evaluation.
